With the goal of educating the public on mindful consumerism, “Other” is a Vancouver-based slow design initiative who will be hosting their first independent designer market in Vancouver from November 28 – 30. Hailing from Vancouver to Montreal, and even Chicago and Texas, support the independent artists and designers who will be showcasing their goods and stories at the Other market.
“We want to highlight the designer’s process and story just as much as the product. Mindful consumerism becomes possible when we reconnect buyers with their purchases” – Negin Izad and Sofia Fiorentino, Founders, Other
