How the West was designed: thoughtfully, beautifully, passionately, as the nine winners in our 12th annual awards program so aptly demonstrate. Introducing our 2019 Western Living Designers of the Year: the designers who are at the forefront of shaping the way we live today.

We’re celebrating the winners in our September issue, but also at a big awards bash on September 19 in Vancouver. Join us, why don’t you? 

Congratulations to all of our entrants and finalists… and of course, to our 2019 Designers of the Year.
