Decorating Vancouver’s Urban Spaces

Once upon a time, a ‘home’ in Vancouver was synonymous with a bungalow beyond the city’s core industrial and business districts.

And the statement, “I’m decorating this weekend” implied a visit to the nearest furniture store to pick out a couch to match the TV.

Modern urban living, however, has altered living and decorating options considerably.

Today, an up and coming professional in Vancouver could be residing in a converted loft in Gastown, a condo in Yaletown, a boat in Coal Harbour or a flat in Kitsilano.

Each of these urban spaces can serve as a residence and each requires the touches that invoke the home sensibilities of tranquility and security once entering through the door.

Afterall, first impressions are everything.

Orling and Wu is the dream-child of co-creators Fredrik Örling and Julie Wu. Both are interior decoration experts who understand home spaces and how they relate to their landscape and the personality of the owner.

Located in Vancouver’s historic Gastown district at 28 Water Street, Orling and Wu offers numerous accessories to accentuate home spaces with the personal touch.

Their team also provides interior design consultation and also tackle larger decoration projects, such as customising your home or business space from top to bottom.

For anyone contemplating a home or office makeover, dropping into the retail store is the right place to start. Alternatively, you can also visit the Orling and Wu website at - http://orlingandwu.com.
