Hot Design Comes to Vancouver!

Vancouver is again the proud host of two of the hottest design shows in the country.  The Vancouver Home and Interior Design Show www.vancouverhomeshow.com kicks off September 9-12th at the new Vancouver Trade and convention Centre and IDS West (Interior Design Show West) www.idswest.com arrives October 14-17th at the same location.  Both shows will feature a plethora of speakers and vendor booths with every kind of design advice and gadget imaginable.  From green to dream, there is a solution for all of your upcoming projects if you know what you’re looking for.



For new homebuyers, both shows offer a chance to gather ideas for any renovations or updates you plan to do in your new space.  The trick is knowing what to choose once you’ve brought all those nifty samples home with you; it can all feel overwhelming if you don’t have a plan or a colour scheme in mind.  Hiring a professional to help doesn’t need to break the bank. 

Benjamin Moore Dunbar’s Colour & Design Consultants can help you pick out colours to perfectly match the fixed elements like tile, counters, cabinets and flooring that you choose.  Not even sure which tiles are best? We can help with that too! We will determine the look and feel that you are trying to achieve, work with your existing furniture and art and help narrow down which fixed elements will work best with your new colour palette.


So after you go and enjoy the shows, book an interior or exterior colour consultation ($135-150) with one of our colour experts. Every consultation includes a customized colour chart and a $25 Gift Certificate to the Dunbar Paint Centre or any of our 8 convenient locations.  Let us help take the stress out of your design process!
