Candice Olson is one of North America’s leading designers and most recognized media personalities. As designer and host of “Divine Design” and now “
Candice Tells All,” she is a favourite with viewers on W Network in Canada and HGTV in the US. Each week she brings a wealth of design experience and an attitude that is smart, witty and truly unique into over 115 million North American households.
After earning her degree from the School of Interior Design at Ryerson University in Toronto, Candice launched an exciting commercial and residential design business. Considered “the one to watch” by the New York Times, Candice continued to receive accolades and media attention for her distinctive and exceptional work.
Candice’s foray into television began when a local TV station profiled one of her award-winning design projects. Her unique approach to residential design and engaging personality led to a weekly stint as a design contributor to the show. Viewer demand for “more Candice!” led to the creation of the hit series “
Divine Design.” Candice and the show quickly won a huge and loyal audience and went on to achieve a milestone of over 200 episodes after eight seasons. “Divine Design” continues to receive rave reviews and recognition around the world, including more than 160 countries where the series has aired.
In 2005, Candice launched “
The Candice Olson Collection,” her own successful brand of licensed product lines that includes upholstered furniture, fabrics, wallpaper, lighting, case goods, bedding, and more. Candice’s signature style is one she describes as “a fusion of traditional form, scale, and proportions with the clean, crisp, simplistic beauty of modern design.” For more information, visit www.candiceolson.com.

The Today Show, Regis and Kelly, The View, and
The Oprah Winfrey Show. Candice writes a bi-weekly newspaper column syndicated in over 400 newspapers across North America and is a frequent contributor to design magazines both in Canada and the US.

In the second season of Candice Tells All, contractor Roger Morin joins the team as Candice’s charming new Project Manager.
A native of Aylmer, Ontario, Roger developed a love for building and renovating when he started going to work with his dad at the age of 9. At York University Roger earned a degree in Kinesiology, and then travelled the world as a model, working for the likes of Giorgio Armani and Men’s Italian Vogue. After modeling stints in Hong Kong, Milan, Greece and London, he eventually found his way back to the farm in Aylmer, and returned to his first love by taking over his dad’s residential contracting business.
With such a busy schedule, Roger still finds time to snowboard, play hockey and horseback ride. Roger is a great addition to the Candice Tells All crew, bringing his easy-going, unflappable nature to each job site.
