Meet Ivanka
With over 25 years in the interior design business, I still love my work, and I am excited for each new design project. I take my work very personally, and in turn, I take the homes and spaces of my clients very personally. It brings me joy to know that my clients are relaxing in and enjoying their specially designed rooms and spaces.

Ivanka Ljubicic, principal designer of IRL Drafting & Design has been working in high end residential interior design for over 25 years. Ivanka starting exploring her interests in design during high school where she studied fine art and was introduced to drafting and AutoCad. This early exposure led her to study Interior Design at Humber College where Ivanka graduated with honours.
A week after she completed her degree, Ivanka began working with a busy and esteemed residential interior designer where she received invaluable exposure and experience into every aspect of what it takes to be a successful interior designer and business owner.
Since those early days, Ivanka continued to work in many areas of Interior design that included furniture design and sales, residential Interior Design firms, as well as for custom home builders and cabinet makers. This hands-on experience further developed and strengthened Ivanka’s unique skills and passion for renovations, custom furniture and millwork design.
