Totem Rug Design

In 2013 Robyn Waffle joined forces with Yvan Semenowycz to launch a vibrant new textile company titled Totem Design Co. They each had experience designing rugs for other companies and bonded over their shared vision of creating vibrant, playful rug and tapestry collections. The pair launched their company with a colourful collection, inspired by Super Heroes, at Fan Expo in Toronto. They co-managed Totem Design Co. for four years, full time, until they were approached by a luxury European company called Jan Kath Design. In 2017, Jan Kath hired the Robyn and Yvan to launch their rug company in Toronto. The talented design-duo (who have since tied-the-knot) have designed countless custom area rugs for corporate and private clients over the years. One of their most notable clients is SLASH from Guns & Roses.
