Ever wondered who’s responsible for the modern, stylish decor in some of
the most sought-after new developments?
Janine Wilson works exclusively as a designer for developers, but moved
her studio into a North Vancouver retail space so she could sell some of
the beautiful goods she encounters.The
Mill is pretty much a family business, selling textiles made by her
mother, metal pieces made by her father, and furniture made from
reclaimed goods sourced by her sister. Featuring a mix of modern and
vintage (let’s call it rustic mid century), the store sells new or
reconditioned furniture, home textiles, and housewares. Check out the
cable knit ceramic bud vases ($9.90), teak measuring spoon set ($26.40)
and the wool flannel, leather-trimmed stockings. All great Christmas
presents, or to buy from me to me. That’s usually our favourite person
to shop for, anyway. Alexanda Suhner Isenberg
