An intriguing address, a non-sequitur name, AVENUE ROAD evokes somewhere you can't put your finger on. Perhaps that's because it isn't one place but many design destinations. No matter which one you find yourself in, you can be certain to expect the unexpected. For curator Stephan Weishaupt, design is about relationships.
Weishaupt's intuition, world view, and above all, affinity for connecting people is what helps him bring the best of the world of design together into a truly original experience. Born and raised in Munich, Weishaupt's relationship with his family - a long line of entrepreneurs, architects and carpenters - imparted his insatiable curiosity and appreciation of art and design.
His friendship with design legends George Yabu and Glenn Pushelberg ignited the idea for a curated design experience that would bring undiscovered global talent to North America.

Eclectic Glamour with Gillian Segal Design
Report
With her self-described "modern, eclectically glamourous" style, Gillian Segal was a serendipitous fit to take on this Vancouver residential project for a well travelled design lover. In the beach-side Kitsilano neighborhood sat a traditional craftsmen style home, a true relic of the 90s when it was built-- until Gillian Segal and her team completely transformed it for the retired empty nester home owner.
