Livingspace Celebrates IDS Vancouver and 50th Anniversary of Togo

VANCOUVER, B.C., July 27, 2023 – Livingspace, Vancouver’s leading destination for modern European home furnishings, announces its participation at the Interior Design Show Vancouver (IDS Vancouver), taking place at the Vancouver Convention Centre West from September 21-24.

For the design show’s highly anticipated Trade Day programming on Friday, September 22, Livingspace presents Ligne Roset & 50 Years of Togo, a discussion in design featuring keynote speaker Simone Vingerhoets-Ziesmann, Executive Vice President, Ligne Roset USA Corporation. Following a day of thought-provoking design programming, the brand will host The Official IDS after party, Presented by Livingspace – Ligne Roset & 50 Years of Togo, outside of its 30,000 square foot showroom, located in Vancouver’s creative hub, The Armoury District.

“IDS Vancouver is a renowned design show in this market and we are extremely grateful to be a part of it,” says Livingspace founder & president, Ross Bonetti. He continues, “we couldn’t be more excited to welcome Simone to Vancouver and honour 50 years of Togo, and we’re looking forward to inviting design experts and enthusiasts alike to the brand new Ligne Roset Shop at Livingspace where people can explore the legendary seating collection.”

Simone Vingerhoets-Ziesmann will join the IDS Vancouver Caesarstone Stage on September 22 from 1:30 – 2:30pm to share insights into the legacy of the renowned French design house and what’s ahead for the Ligne Roset brand. Following the talk, the after party will begin at 7pm and feature fun bites, creative cocktails, and an enticing giveaway. Open to all IDS Vancouver ticket holders, guests will have the opportunity to connect with peers and industry professionals in a social outdoor setting and explore Livingspace’s showroom and the new Ligne Roset Shop.

Known for its comfortable, informal and snug design, 2023 marks half a century for the iconic Togo seating collection, originally designed by Michel Ducaroy in 1973 for Ligne Roset. Reimagined for its anniversary year in La Toile du Peintre, a contemporary tapestry with a large graphic pattern and vibrant colours that reinterprets a work by painter Heather Chontos, the limited-edition Ligne Roset Togo collection can be found in Vancouver exclusively at Livingspace.

Established in 1988 by Vancouver local Ross Bonetti, Livingspace has grown to become the city’s premier destination for modern furniture, kitchens, closets, bathroom and lighting. The concept for Livingspace was inspired by an appreciation for modern design, and the desire to create a unique, approachable and customer-centric retail environment catering to both the consumer and professional design community.
