    We care, we listen, we spend the time to getting to know you, providing a unique one-on-one experience to all our clients. What are their needs and desires? We listen to their personal style preferences, their lifestyle, their expectations, then and only then, do we make a plan.

    Inclusion; We are about belonging and friendship, a place where everyone knows your name, a haven where you can leave life’s stresses at the door and relax for a few hours with friends.

    Ikon is about supporting and working together. To create a workspace where we share knowledge freely so that we can always be improving.
