The Decorators & Designers Association of Canada (DDA) has been committed to uniting, representing and advancing Canada’s decorating and design industry for more than 30 years. DDA Canada is the most influential association for design industry professionals in Canada. We are continually growing by connecting, supporting and advocating for design professionals, students and suppliers.
We are dedicated to helping our members be the best they can be for their clients and themselves. DDA champions decorating and design excellence by setting educational standards and professional development requirements for our members, and by requiring them to adhere to the DDA Code of Ethics. DDA fosters the growth of the decorating industry in Canada, advocates for the profession on policy matters, and promotes a positive image of the industry through proactive activities, events and Awards Gala.
DDA is more than just an association – it’s a community. We understand the importance of building meaningful relationships in this industry. That’s why we provide members with exclusive networking opportunities, from local chapter events to our highly anticipated DDA Gala. These events offer the chance to connect with like-minded professionals, share ideas and find new business opportunities.
Check out our new membership options. The Associate Membership is designed for new Canadians and professionals transitioning from related fields, offering a pathway to integrate into the design community and gain recognition for their skills.
Our new Design Firm Membership now extends benefits to full-time employees in non-design roles to create a sense of community within the association. This membership allows team members in administration, finance, and marketing roles to connect, network and access educational workshops, ensuring the entire firm benefits from the resources and opportunities available to our members.
