What a great autumn night to spend some time together!

On October 29, Western Living gathered the region’s design community at Vilnora in Vancouver for our very first Western Living Design 25 Finalists Reveal Party. The evening announced and celebrated the 100 finalists who are up for winning one of our coveted Western Living Design 25 awards in 2027.

Over great food, wine and cocktails from Woods Spirit Co., guests gathered in Vilnora’s gorgeous showroom to reconnect and celebrate together. Most importantly, it was a great opportunity to celebrate the people and projects helping shape Western Canada’s design landscape—the beautiful rooms and products featured in the finalists announcement.
