Creative Director / Founder
DesignAgency

Working with Emily Mcinnes has been a standout experience for our team at DesignAgency. As an art consultant, Emily brought a truly strategic and thoughtful approach to our projects-one that went far beyond simply sourcing artwork. From the outset, she took the time to understand our client's brand DNA, values, and visual language, and then expertly curated pieces that not only complemented the space but also deepened its narrative.

What sets Emily apart is her ability to bridge the worlds of art and design with both precision and creativity. Her insights added a layer of cultural relevance and emotional resonance to each project, aligning seamlessly with the vision we developed for our clients. The art selections were not only visually compelling, but they also spoke to the identity and ethos of the brand in a meaningful way.

Collaborating with Emily was a smooth, inspiring, and truly enjoyable process. Her professionalism, clarity in communication, and genuine passion for connecting people with powerful art made her an invaluable partner. We look forward to working together again and continuing to create impactful, story-driven spaces.

I've had the pleasure of working with Emily from Eye Buy Art on many projects including the Menkes, First Gulf, and AGF head offices, as well as the Adagio Condominium in Toronto.

Her strategic and thoughtful approach to art curation ensures each piece aligns seamlessly with our clients' brand, values, and vision. Emily is a true collaborator— positive, invested, and a joy to work with. From concept to budgeting to installation, she brings clarity, creativity, and professionalism to the entire process, always enhancing the design narrative we've created.

CEO
AGF Management Limited

I am truly fortunate to have worked with Emily as I have evolved and developed my personal art collection. Building on the initial pieces had collected and working with Emily to form a shared vision of the next level of my collection has been incredibly rewarding, educational, and meaningtul.

Emily consistently offered innovative ideas that aligned with our vision, integrating new contemporary voices into my existing collection. Her insights and expertise were instrumental in bringing the collection to the next level. At the end, my collection was professionally catalogued for future reference, with comprehensive descriptions and reviews of each artist and their works, helping to define my legacy. I am thrilled with the final outcome and deeply appreciate Emily's invaluable contributions.

We were pleased to partner with Emily to select art for AGF's head office. She approached our project with clarity, professionalism, and creative insight. She introduced ideas that were both unexpected and perfectly aligned with AGF's future direction. The final commission-a striking 30-foot painting-is now the focal point of our reception space. It continues to inspire staff and visitors alike. Working with Emily was a seamless and rewarding experience that surpassed our expectations.
