Bastian Weitzel - Principal Designer and Owner

About me

Interior design reflects the lifestyle of individuals living in spaces. Each project and client are unique and so is my experience in design. My design skills are not only based on experiences in interior design, but also in fashion design, visual merchandising and event design. My design background along with lots of real world, hands on experience, as well as a European eye for design will make your project a one of a kind experience.

Architectural Drafting

Growing up in Germany, I started my professional career with an apprenticeship as an architectural draftsman. This not only sharpened my sense for spaces, but it also developed my skills to translate ideas into technical drawings. Along the way this gave me the essential knowledge about building materials and their specifications.

As my career evolved, I discovered my interest for designing and constructing garments and I moved to a different yet related field. I enrolled in a fashion design program with the prestigious 'Modefachschule Sigmaringen' fashion design school in Germany. Here I was able to develop a more distinct sense for colours, shapes and proportions. Drafting patterns, choosing materials and constructing garments came to me naturally and I graduated as one of the top students in my year. With my love for design I established my own studio, where I was able to create custom designs for over 5 years.

visual merchandising

Over time my interest and passion moved from designing beautiful garments to designing and decorating beautiful spaces. So I decided to enroll in a 3 year apprenticeship program with a German furniture and home decor store. With my creative and technical background already established, this career path tied together all my skills. Drawing on the latest trends and styles in home decor, I've been designing beautiful bespoke interior spaces ever since.

event design

Starting in Germany and then in Canada, I have created temporary and pop up spaces for corporate events, trade shows and weddings.
As an event designer in this field I developed my organizational and logistical experiences.  Having relocated to Vancouver in 2010 I have worked on numerous high end events across Canada and worldwide.

Being inspired by spaces and seeing their transformative potential is my passion. I love taking seemingly ordinary spaces in the home and redesigning them. They become unique, beautiful yet functional; the perfect home for my clients to live, work and entertain within.
As your creative mind, grounded in proven real world experience in both Europe and North America, I look forward to sharing this journey with you. ​
