Here’s a feature on our fabulous in-house designer Peter Wilds, that recently ran in the Vancouver Province Newspaper…
Favourite home-design trends for this season:
It’s all about the mix: old/new; industrial/ refined; elegant/edgy.
Favourite home-style destinations on TV or the Internet:
I’m into sites and blogs: The Selby, Fashionologie, Style.com,lonnymag.com— and The Rachel Zoe Project is a guilty pleasure.
Timeless pieces for the home:
Art and design books.
Where to splurge in home decor:
Splurge on lighting: pot lights, table and floor lamps, dimmers everywhere (and I mean everywhere). Shoes make or break an out fit. I feel the same way about lighting. They make or break a room.
Where to save:
As far as saving goes, I say live with what you have or go without until you can get what you desire and your budget allows. Putting together a beautiful and personal space takes time. I say “buy well, buy once.”
Guilty pleasures:
Books and magazines: And contrary to so many shutting down, the magazine is not dead!
Reading right now:
I’m reading Malcolm Gladwell’s Outliers and enjoying his exploration of the elements that lead to success.
Favourite Vancouver hangouts during winter:
Having a glass of wine with friends while sitting in front of the fireplace at The Wedgewood.
