Our first live event for our Western Living Design 25 Awards was a party for the ages
It was a night of celebration! Our second annual Western Living Design 25 Awards – and first-ever live event, presented by LaSalle College Vancouver – was a lively, packed-to-the-rafters event at King Living in Vancouver on February 20, 2025. All 25 winners were announced live on stage for the first time, as well as our WL People’s Choice Awards for Best Product and Best Room, as folks celebrated over Duchess Cocktails, Mission Hill wine and Twin Sails Brewing beer, along with great bites from Truffles Fine Foods.
Vision Event Photography was on hand to capture every moment. We’ve selected a handful of our favourites below, but you’ll find a link to even more at the bottom of the page!

Our party photographers, Vision Event Photography, were mixing with the crowd and capturing the winners both on and off the stage. We’ve uploaded the whole shebang to our Flickr account, so you catch the design stars in attendance mixing and mingle that night at King Living in Vancouver.
The editorial team at Western Living loves nothing more than a perfectly designed space, place or thing: and we’re here to tell you about it. Email us your pitches at [email protected].
