décor & design – vintage finds and elegant objects

**After 11 years at their 6th Ave location Heather Ross [ in house ] has recently moved & rebranded their art salon/boutique to heather ross (natural eclectic). See address below.

 

NATURE is a constant source of information for Artist & Designer Heather Ross who is known for her wonderful sense of color & keen eye.  Her paintings, while abstracted, draw upon the elements of earth, water, air & sky with soothing color palettes.

Her boutique is a favorite amongst designers, art directors and decorators who covet Heathers unique vision & the way she brings unexpectedly beautiful items together with warmth & sensitivity.

good2In her inviting space she creates a compelling mix of new and old.  Lush pillows, antique textiles and unique finds from the flea markets of Europe mingle with contemporary ceramics, fresh décor & endearing gifts.  Her clientele will discover art in her paintings and photos which grace the walls in an inviting atmosphere.good4good3

Here is what a few magazine’s have written:

This is the thinking decorator’s dream shop.   I could not extricate myself from its intelligent, captivating spell.  It has the feeling of an underwater garden, inspired no doubt by Heather’s upbringing on the coast and her love for all things natural’

“Heather Ross [natural eclectic] conjures a home dressed in driftwood hues, vintage finds and elegant objects… rather than a typical store, poured concrete floors, clean white walls and a purposefully raw atmosphere form an uncluttered setting for her restrained vignettes”
Canadian House & Home Jan 2010

“One third each evocative gallery, chic boutique, and European Atelier, Heather Ross (natural eclectic) offers an eclectic collection of hip items for the home.”  Style at Home Magazine

AND I add to that “you must look up at the ceiling.”

Heather is currently working on a book & design blog, The Natural Eclectic™

New Location is at 2170 Fir Street at 6th in Vancouver  (they’re just getting set up).
