ELEGANCE AND OPULENCE Highlights from the Luxury Home Show
T
he Vancouver Convention Centre was transformed May 2-3 into a 58,000 square foot mansion. The second annual 2015 Luxury Home & Design Show showcased collaborated vignettes between some of the city’s top architects, builders, interior designers and most exclusive international vendors and furniture makers. The fair is said to be the only Canadian exhibition featuring curated home furnishings and well-known brand names of the rich and famous. Organized by Taste of Life magazine publisher Wendy Guo, the show is also the first of its kind in North America. This year it attracted approximately 3,000 of arguably some of Vancouver’s wealthiest residents. With tickets going for $100 (or $150 for access into the VIP room) to $200 for a weekend pass, affluent attendees enjoyed the show sipping on a cocktail or glass of wine, serenaded by a pianist. Decked out in their finest, people milled about, checking out the opulent spaces designed by local and international trendsetters often seen in the pages of home design magazines. The Italian-inspired $250,000 grotto bathroom with $18,000 gold faucets, handcrafted marble sinks and Versace wallpaper attracted lots of attention, as did the Frenchchateau inspired gardens and cov-

ered lanai. A wall covered with a custom Chinois floral wallpaper by England’s de Gournay, whose handpainted frescos grace dresses worn by Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, greeted the crowd as they entered the venue. “The show was much better than our first. This year was about redefining what luxury means,” Guo says. “It was also about fuelling the desire in all homeowners to appreciate the work that goes into creating beautiful homes. It’s not all about money; it was about the craftsmanship involved in the beautiful pieces of furniture and accessories.”
ate a similar look for less, says Chrissy Cottrell, principal designer of Vancouver’s Chrissy & Co Design Savvy, who designed the space. “Check out estate sales, antique and secondhand stores to find quality, affordable vintage pieces,” she adds. “Add gold accessories, in a brushed finish, to add elegance. Lastly, paint, pillows, lighting and flooring don’t have to be expensive but can give that look of elegance.”
Luxury Bathrooms on a Budget REW asked Joy Chao of John Henshaw Architect to give tips on how to create an indulgent, beautiful ensuite bathroom on a budget. She said: “So often I have seen homeowners think the way to make a place looks luxurious is to install as many expensive things as possible. That’s really not the case. One can have a simple white bathroom, but by adding some nice touches – a nice vase filled with flowers or striking accessories such as soap dishes and lush towels – you can create a spainspired space. “Other easy tips include: hanging a few unique prints for artwork to add more visual interest and paint the walls in a rich tone of colour. These small things can convert a simple bathroom into a very beautiful space.”
Indulgent Grandeur In one corner of the centre, Joy Chao of John Henshaw Architect created an indulgent $50,000 Renaissance bathroom. The inspiration came from Stile, an Italian hardwood floor company, which she says creates interesting design and specialty finishes for their hardwood floor every year called StileLab. The great room was resplendent in Paramount Furniture’s tobaccocoloured leather chairs and a Roche Bobois ivory and taupe undertone sectional, Venetian wall paneling and a crystal and brushed gold chandelier. Although the great room on display is affordable mostly to the wealthy, there are ways to cre-

THE RIVERFRONT LIFESTYLE E
very day, Paul and Mary Stopp wake up to catch herons, geese, ducks or swans diving into the Fraser River for their next meal. From their upper deck, they have unobstructed views of the Gulf Islands, right to Shelter Island. “We love watching the fishing boats pass by and eagles soaring high above,” says Mary. The couple was empty nesters since their son went off to university, so they figured it was time to downsize from their large heritage home on No. 4 Road in Richmond. Recently, the couple moved into their custom built three storey waterfront executive home with six-car garage in East Richmond’s newest riverfront project - Blue Heron Marina Estates, a sophisticated collection of nine executive residences. Initially, Mary admitted she needed some convincing to move to in the emerging Hamilton neighbourhood. Now you couldn’t pry her away. “It’s amazing to watch the marine life go by every day,” says Mary. “In addition, we walk out our door and we have numerous walking trails and an off-leash area only five minutes away for
our two dogs.” Each three-bedroom custom built homes, ranging between 2341 and 3084 square feet, is superbly appointed with unique features such as a six-car garages, an elevator, media room and glass Eclipse Folding Doors - giving residents front row seats to spectacular riverfront vistas. The contemporary, open-concept homes are showcased by solid black walnut flooring with travertine foyers, gas fireplace in the great room, oversized windows to let in lots of natural sunlight, nine-foot ceilings, custom millwork and south facing waterfront decks from the great room and master suites that overlook the marina below. Each residence is beautifully appointed with an exceptionally elegant kitchen - a chef’s dream. All are equipped with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, including a Wolf 36” Gas Range, gourmet microwave drawers, granite countertops with ceramic tile backsplash, custom cabinetry and walk-in pantry (in some). Blue Heron Marina Estates comes from yacht builder Paul Palmer. “I’ve built many boats in my lifetime and wanted this reflected in the finish of these homes” says Palmer. He and
his wife Heather, wanted to create a waterfront community where you could just step out your door and head out on your boat. When Hamilton reaches full re-gentrification, it will encompass new housing developments and a new urban centre. Steveston Real Estate RE/MAX’s Sean Lawson is involved in a 10-year project that will transform this neighbourhood; creating a new city core. It is said to become the next Steveston. This summer when Blue Heron Marina is complete, there will a full service marina with 48 slips for power or sail boats and a clubhouse. Only four homes remain. This is an opportunity to purchase a luxurious executive home, assessed at around $1.7 million, for $1,288,000 to $1,388,000. This is waterfront living at its best. With easy access to highways 91 and 99 you are 15 minutes from the airport, 30 to downtown Vancouver and 20 minutes to the U.S. border. For more information, or to view the show home at 23740 Dyke Road, stop by Thursdays or Sundays from 1 to 4 p.m., or for a private viewing call Randy Larsen of Macdonald Realty at 604-290-2650 or email randylarsen97@gmail.com.
