Retail Design Inspiration

On the weekend I decided to take a trip to the high-end retail area of Vancouver as sometimes you can find surprising inspiration. Jacob was also looking for shoes so that didn't hurt either. We walked along the Robson street area and had a lovely day enjoying the city.


Not only is the retail interior design of all Aritzia stores great, they also have really creative window displays as well. These ones were so inventive in theme and the colour palette was lovely.




We stopped in at The Bay which has 6 floors I believe, these shots were taken on the floor that is called The Room. This Boutique section of the Bay can only be found in Toronto and Vancouver and it is Sooooo amazing! The interior design was stunning right down to the fixtures and the flooring.  There was also a lovely floral wall installation that added to the art gallery feel of the space. The clothes and accessories were like sculpture and I almost had sensory overload from the fantasticalness of it all. Another great thing is that this area of the bay features many great Canadian fashion designers which is awesome.


This fabric was probably one of the most stunning I had ever seen. The most delicate lace that had been printed with a lace pattern on top! So beautiful.

Recycled bottle vase/planters

I finally decided to take some pictures of the recycled bottle planters on their own without any plants in them and some new shots of them with more minimal plants . I also thought it would be cool to show them being used to hold flowers as that is also an option. As a result I changed some listings on my Etsy store and added these items to my Cargoh store!
