Meet the Minister of Interior

September 29th, 2011

Dear Members of Parliament,

IDSwest is back in session for another year beginning tomorrow and running until Sunday, October 2,2011 at the Vancouver Convention Centre. Of course, Parliament will once again be presiding over a booth of beautiful things, plus doing a little draw to give away a piece of artwork. But before you head over, be sure to swing by the store to receive $2 off your admission.

Craig Parkes, Minister of Interior

His Pick: Marcel Sofa

September 29th, 2011

“I also call it the Mad Men sofa, because of its cool mid-century styling. One of our featured furnishings at IDSwest this weekend, it comes in lots of fabric choices. I have it grey and I love how it looks alongside my more modern pieces. It also pairs well with wood tones.” Starts at $1800.

His Pick: Rugs For No Riches

September 29th, 2011

“We’ve just launched rugs this fall. They’re all 5‘ x 8‘ and all the same great price. I’m partial to the graphically bold Rome Navy [far right] and the marbled Rufus [second in from the right], which we named after my Blue Merle Australian Shepherd, but they’re all gorgeous and we’ll keep getting more. Some can be used both indoors and outdoors. Like many of our products, there are custom options too.” 5'x7'$495

His Pick: High Gloss Art

September 29th, 2011

“Our superb selection of art now comes with the option of a ‘glass coat’ finish. This modern Eiffel Tower print is a fantastic starter piece, because who doesn’t love the Eiffel Tower. In fact, I got engaged there. Well, at the other one, the one in Las Vegas, but let’s pretend it was Paris.” Starts at $365
