We are honoured to welcome the designers, artists, makers, and design-centric brands who have come together in Vancouver to showcase their current works, concepts, and products. IDSwest is an incredible opportunity for dialogue about the way in which the West Coast’s people, resources, and natural beauty have influenced its culture of design. The Pacific Northwest has experienced a major design boom that has been especially embraced here, in Vancouver. We are proud to spotlight this region’s abundance of creative and collaborative energy, and invite you all to celebrate our region’s tremendous talent while we join the design conversation globally, on the world stage.
IDSwest showcases not only a diverse selection of features and installations, but also some of the design world’s most notable and talented personalities. In particular, we would like to extend tremendous appreciation to the exhibitors, sponsors, special guests, and speakers, all of whom are here to share their passion with you. We encourage you to take advantage of their knowledge and their expertise!
On behalf of the many individuals who have tirelessly worked to bring you the 11th annual Interior Design Show West, thank you for joining us!

DROP IN AND ENJOY INFORMATIVE, ENTERTAINING, AND INSPIRING PRESENTATIONS ON OUR STAGES.
STAGEThe Caesarstone Stage is the source for inspiring and educational keynote lectures from local and interna-tional experts in the design industry. At IDSwest we are excited to host an esteemed group of designers and design industry professionals on the Caesarstone Stage for both the Azure Trade Talks and consumer presentations.
THE GRAY CONVERSATIONS STAGE Once again, GRAY is the exclusive media sponsor of one of the most anticipated elements of the show: the GRAY Conversations Stage. Hosted and moder-ated by GRAY, this unique show highlight will feature on-topic, dynamic discussions with creative thinkers— providing a more intimate experience for both trade and design enthusiasts.
The central CAESARSTONE STAGE at IDSwest15 will be designed by HCMA Architecture + Design. HCMA is a firm of over 50 staff members that has been recognized internationally and nationally for service and design excellence. The studio environment in both their Vancouver and Victoria offices, intentionally open to foster dialogue and problem solving, supports their collabora-tive approach. This approach has been applied to the concept design for this year’s stage, which uses the shape of a circle to gather people together, and break the grid established by the existing exhibit booth layout. The hanging panels that define the perimeter of the circle recall the draped canopy of a willow tree, and are gathered together at strategic points to allow access and views to the events within.
The intimate and inviting GRAY Conversations Stage and Lounge were designed by Jen Hawk of Vancouver-based Occupy Design. Inspired by high-end hospitality design and channeling a West Coast organic-modern sensibility, the spaces “celebrate the raw beauty of the Pacific Northwest,” says Hawk. Live greenery “chandeliers,” shou sugi ban (charred wood) planters, and concrete and copper details create a luxurious, comfortable environment that draws the audience close and invites them to be a part of the Conversations.

ROY MCMAKINDomestic Architecture; Domestic Furniture | San Diego and SeattlePresented by:
Friday 1:30 p.m.GRAY CONVERSATIONS STAGE *Submitted for AIBC/IDCEC accreditation
Known for bridging the gap between art, architecture, and design, Roy McMakin has been creating furniture–art objects since 1979. Although he launched his career in Los Angeles, the Wyoming-born artist moved to Seattle in 1994, where he established his architecture firm and custom-built furniture and manufacturing studio. Interested in the sculptural and emotional pull of objects, McMakin noted in a 2010 personal essay that he sees “the job of an artist as that of a philosopher of visual experience.” His work has been the subject of multiple solo exhibitions, including at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles and the Henry Art Gallery in Seattle.

Earlier in his career, Jason spent time in both the art and advertising worlds, but soon realized he preferred making things to docu-menting them. His designs—such as a mirror whose photo-graphic surface recalls a painted landscape—reflect his early preoccupations, but each is a functional object, with a kind of beauty and wit. Since it was founded in 2010, Roll & Hill has cultivated strong relationships with its designer-collaborators and introduced a fleet of stunning and innovative lamps to market.

The West Coast knows luxury. We love luxurious spaces, materials, and experiences, and we do them in our own way. What are the forces at work that shape our understanding of what luxury means today? How does the left coast stand out from global concepts of luxury that have been entrenched for much longer? Our panelists, who each have a different perspective on how the idea of luxury is expressed in the Pacific Northwest, discuss what’s relevant and what’s not when it comes to true richness in design.
