ADDRESS design event returns to Vancouver for the fourth year

Apr 5 2017, 1:20 am

Ever wonder how those one-of-a-kind pieces of furniture are made? How about that cool sculpture you once saw at your friend’s place? Or maybe you simply want to marvel at some beautiful lighting?

Well then check out the ADDRESS design event happening this May in Vancouver.

ADDRESS will be returning to Vancouver for its fourth year to feature some of the best designers and makers in the Pacific Northwest.

Furniture designer Kate Duncan founded the event back in 2014 to bring together the finest designs in the community – including furniture, lighting and accessories.

This year’s event will include more than 30 exhibitors. Designers are chosen by their unique methods, advanced production processes and their use of materials.

“The aim of this approach is to create a more immersive experience to engage and inspire spectators. It’s more of a lifestyle event than a tradeshow,” said Duncan in a release.

“It’s a must-see showcase for those interested in gaining a deeper understanding and appreciation for art and design.”
“And the vibe is really authentic. It’s a warehouse full of incredible work by an amazing group of dedicated makers. Anyone who’s remotely interested in the direction of design really shouldn’t miss this.”
The show this year will feature a new design-centric program, which includes Design Minds, a panel conversation that is hosted by GRAY Magazine and Designer Happy Hour.

The infamous ADDRESS launch party will be take place on May 25 at 6 pm to kick off the event and introduce the community to the new exhibitors
