Like Alice falling down the rabbit hole—or, in this case, navigating an endlessly curving road through dense forests—one becomes “curiouser and curiouser” about Lyndon Cormack’s hideaway in North Vancouver’s Woodlands community.
“I’ve lived in this area for over 20 years and when this house came on the market a few years ago, it was so intriguing I had to figure out how to buy it,” Cormack says. “I spend so much time in the world’s best cities, including Vancouver where our office and store are downtown, so it’s so nice to escape here.”
He adds: “I’ve always loved unusual things, doing a lot of my shopping online. But I do make a point of wherever I travel for meetings, whether in Dubai or Berlin or to New York, to get out and walk to interesting stores and antique markets.” At the touch of a button, an electric garage door Macdonald had installed in the living room opens to cooling breezes, multilevel patios and spectacular views of the inlet beyond. Indoors, colourful textile-and-wire jellyfish he found in Paris’ Marais district hang in the window of a cosy nook adjacent to the built-in bar. Their dangling tentacles are mimicked by the gigantic, creature-like lighting fixture by Bocci, suspended from the 20-foot ceiling that dominates the open-concept living room.
