Avedis Duvenjian's background in wood finishing goes back generations before him to his grandfather in Armenia. In his own career, he felt drawn to wood flooring, in particular the work of legendary wood floor master Birger Juell, renowned for his classic European parquets, and the oil finishes being used in Europe. Avedis and his partner, Vartan, created Archetypal Imagery, which has become one of the most award-winning and sought-after wood flooring companies in the world. Today, Avedis's obsession with color theory and how color and finishes interplay with wood has become his life’s work, and creating LED Coatings Solutions is the culmination of that work.
Vartan Arutyunian grew up in Armenia and pursued an education in art, and because of his extraordinary artistic talent, he was able to secure a talent visa to get his green card and live in the United States. His artistic talent found an outlet with his friend Avedis and their company, Archetypal Imagery. Today, Vartan continues to bring his extraordinary artistic insights into color and design to Archetypal Imagery and, now, LED Coating Solutions.
