Nicole's Portrait

What fun we had today when we picked up Nicole's portrait. She is such a precious little pet (all four pounds of her). She never fails to make everyone smile. Her signature trait is her tongue which perpetually hangs out. Pamela Hudson is the artist that did this piece. She even put real crinoline fabric on the painting.

INTERIOR COUTURE

YAM’s one-on-one with Canada’s A-list designer Patricia Gray

By Ivan Meade | Photos by Joshua Lawrence

If Canada has a celebrity among interior designers, it is Patricia Gray, the designer of choice for stars like John Travolta — and the woman whose approach to design can best be described as couture. Only the rarest of interior designers develops the kind of signature style that seems to come so naturally to Vancouver’s Patricia Gray. It’s a style which, over a three-decade career, has won her accolades, awards, and features in prestigious magazines like Architectural Digest. Nowhere is Gray’s signature style showcased more naturally than in her eight-story Alberni Street live/work townhome. Here, the vibe is cosmopolitan but there’s no clinical showroom sensibility — this space is designed for living beautifully.

Gray is one of those creatives whose design sensibilities seem to have evolved seamlessly from traditional to contemporary, never bowing to trendiness but always seeming au courant. Gray doesn’t do trends; she sets trends. She even creates ﬁne art for her clients and produces custom furniture through her own millwork company, upholstery workroom, and drapery workroom. As the daughter of a couture seamstress, is it any wonder Gray describes her approach to interior design as couture? And yes, if these rooms could walk, they would be on the world’s most fashionable runways........continued Interior Couture
