A
s recent as ten years ago, cosmetic
treatments were once only associated with the
rich and famous since they were priced out-of-range
for the average person. On top of which, these treatments
were in aesthetic clinics which were very likely to be located
in posh neighbourhoods or shopping districts.
With 200+ businesses offering varying levels of medical
aesthetic services in British Columbia, it is fair to say that
the above no longer holds true. Enter innovators,
such as Chobee Marketing MD Founder and CEO
Lancho Cephivenus, who has identified this beauty niche
and is capitalizing on it.
8
Cephivenus is a millennial with a cause?to turn the
traditional non-inclusive aesthetics industry upside down
with a modern approach that brings everyone to the table,
not just a select few, and connect them in a way that is
accessible, portable, and connected.
8

Cephivenus was 27 years old when he launched Chobee
Aesthetic Marketing. He had a goal of providing the burgeoning
medical aesthetic industry in Vancouver unique customized
marketing solutions for doctors and clinics that were struggling
using generic pre-packaged products and out-of-date social
media campaigns. The response was overwhelming, and what
was once a ?young man with a plan?has grown into a company
employing/contracting with 20+ persons.
Key to this growth was assembling the Chobee team, not as a
traditional professional unit, but as a cohesive group of
creatives, is what Cephivenus credits as the core of the
company?s success.
?Our team is creatively strong, experienced, and growing. The
Chobee approach is a refreshing alternative to the tired
traditional marketing of medical aesthetics in this competitive
time. The businesses that we chose to work with benefit
immensely, both in customer/staff satisfaction and financially. It
is very gratifying."
8
8
9

It is this style of leadership,
and progressive thinking which
has strengthened the position
of over 25 companies across
Canada. By identifying gaps in
existing business models that
were improved upon, clients
were able to generate
additional revenue of over
$10M in the past year alone.
In the queue for joining the
Chobee roster are ten clinics
within BC and from across
Canada, and as a conceptualist,
Cephivenus is designing four
client clinics which will be
constructed in Richmond,
Burnaby, Surrey, and White
Rock.
10
Cephivenus, the Chobee team, and the clients, work together
on dynamic marketing campaigns which champion an
omnichannel approach that may?depending on the client
market?incorporate video and photography production, social
media campaigns, website development/revisualizing,
WeChat/KOL strategies, print and digital media, street-level
marketing, and so much more?all available in a selection of
languages.
Making himself and the team available at major industry
conferences to speak and educate is another key element that
Cephivenus utilizes to reach the aesthetics market. In just the
10
past year, he presented at the Western Canada Aesthetic
Summit 2019, Fotona StarWalker Product Launch, and the
Prollenium Annual Event.
Cephivenus credits his two passions for the success of Chobee.
?My participation in the fine arts since childhood and the study
of business in Canada has given me a unique advantage over
others in this market. Using beauty, whether it is in video,
photography, words, or the type of models we work with, comes
very naturally for me.

At the end of the day, medical aesthetics is all about beauty,
and this is my life.?
Before Chobee
After graduating high school, Cephivenus took on a creative
role at a well-known Chinese fashion website followed by a
stint as a magazine producer, during which time he developed
an artistic portfolio of his style of collage that married digital
imagery and deconstructed pressed flowers.
In 2011, Cephivenus was invited by the Taipei International
Flora Exposition to exhibit a series of his mixed media works
based on modern Chinese bird-and-flower paintings. The
exhibition was very well received, and this success helped
Lancho become well known in the international art circle.
Cephivenus?next step in his career, was to participate in a
2012 Arts competition organized by the world-renowned artist
Murakami Takashi. Placing 7th out of 500 participants saw
him debut at a joint exhibition in Takashi?s Hidari Zingaro
Gallery.
10
10
By 2013, he had presented at
a total of seven exhibitions
(two solo and four group
shows in Taipei, one traveling
group show in Canada), plus
multiple speaking
engagements with
accompanying press. This
experience at such a young
age helped him develop a
keen perception of aesthetics
and the ability to adapt to
high-pressure working
environments, and facilitated
the desire to relocate to
Vancouver.
11

On the Horizon
Exciting changes are on the medical
aesthetics horizon due to Cephivenus
and his vision for success. By creating
and maintaining strong communication
with the physicians and the clinic
owners, he is able to provide solutions
for problems that only recently have
begun to present in the industry.
Priority has been given to first
addressing the desire of beauty centres,
and health spa?s to tap into the revenue
stream that injectables, such as Botox
and fillers, can generate. The creation
of Chobee?s ?Injector Express?allows
businesses to offer full injectable
services without having to employ
full-time physicians and procure/stock
inventory, as this can be financially
daunting to new or smaller sized
companies.
?Injector Express?currently contracts
two persons, a certified physician and a
registered nurse, who are licensed to
perform treatments and are available on
an as-needed basis.
12
12
If a company experiences a strong
response from their client-base through
the use of ?Injector Express?and wishes
to make the service permanent, Chobee
will work with them to recruit a
physician to join their team, train the
staff on services and inventory
management, and create stellar
marketing campaigns.

The Creat ive Genius Behind Alt aModa It alia

AltaModa Italia is defined by the glamorous,
luxurious, and wonderfully eclectic pieces created in
Southern Italy by expert artisan craftspersons at the
behest of founders Stefani and Riccardo Volpi.
Since 1998, the couple?s irreverent vision has melded fashion and
design to create unmistakable items which showcase uniqueness,
distinction, and have a visual impact, regardless of which room the
pieces reside within.
The often whimsical furniture pieces are crafted with luxurious
fabrics by the Ralph Lauren and Christian Lacroix Collections,
velvet, silk, and incorporate various precious metals, including
silver and gold, rhinestones, and crystals. From the living room to
the children?s room, AltaModa Italia offers a parade of brilliant
top-class creations.
Inspired, sometimes by the simplest concepts, the Volpi?s have the
ability to transfer an idea into tangible home décor with a tailored
style and approach, often typical of fashion design. The duo
marries fashion and design aesthetics to create a new
interpretation of subjects that we may see and pass by without a
second glance. Each reveling in the tiniest detail until it becomes a
critical element in the realization of a unique piece.
The installation at Salon del Mobile.Milano 2019 was hosted by
Stefania Volpi and her team. The vibrant space was bedecked by
latest collection ?Beach?which was inspired by Italy?s extensive
shorelines, quirky and colourful aquatic animals, and the lush plant
life that thrives underwater, and washes up upon rocky shores.
Each element is interpreted with a childlike ardor that results in a
representation that is a brilliantly fantastical version of reality.
Volpi delights in the speaking to the brand?s newest offerings
created for ?children, the teenager, or for a little boy. All elements
are here, even the fragrance we produced for the home is similar
to the beach in Tuscany with the scents of flower, fruit, and
blackberries. Through it, you can sense all the dimensions of the
sea, with the wind, the sand, and the beach.?

When not traveling for business, Stefania is at home in
the Tuscan country- side, living and overseeing
production at the AltaModa Italia workshop. It is a
different style of workplace. It is one that revolves
around the concept of family, living a full life, and the
pursuit of happiness. Employees are free to bring their
babies and children to work as needed; together, they eat
and create side-by-side.
Pieces that require hand-painted details are finished by a
single artisan who works from her home. ?This woman
prefers to work in the country-side with all her animals
around, a very typical Tuscany artist,? says Volpi as she
smiles, taking pride in the traditions of her country.
It is this sense of family that inspires Stefania to arise
and get creative in the kitchen, baking up cookies and
other confections to bring to the workplace for all to
enjoy with their morning coffee. She believes strongly in
the creation and maintenance of a warm and
encompassing workplace and explains that ?the feeling
must be good for everybody who works with our family.?
Around the world, AltaModa Italia is renowned for its
collections that inspire a way to live in a luxury-oriented
environment that is expressive, sophisticated, amazing,
and unique.
The charm of the AltaModa Italia children?s collections
has made them irresistible to those who enjoy an
unbridled exploration of pattern and texture. This true
?Made in Italy?home decor brand is available in North
America through stockists like Casa Italia Concept in
Vancouver, New York, and Miami. Internationally, the
brand has representation in dozens of countries,
including the UK, Finland, Belarus, Russia, Nigeria,
Uzbekistan, Saudi Arabia, India, and Greece.

hen looking for
comparisons to finely crafted
timepieces, only luxury vehicles
come close, so much so that
collector Jay Leno was inspired
to write a book on it. Leno likens
it to ?a patient art form? and
though people who know
nothing about fine mechanical
watches can still appreciate their
quality because ?mechanical
devices are just inherently
fascinating,? and we agree.
The west coast is known
internationally for being a haven
of hypercars, the ostentatious
showpieces that scream, albeit in
a velvety voice, ?look at me, look
at me,?as they circle the
downtown core. Less apparent is
Vancouver?s love affair with
haute horlogerie.
RedBarYVR is part of the
world?s largest watch enthusiast
and collector community with
40+ chapters across four
continents and meets regularly
to share their passion for the
manifestations of intricacy and
design which adorn their wrists.
The founders of Sixofour Life
join this group often and are
very unique, in that they are the
only west coast members to
have created an exemplary line
of luxury timepieces for retail.
Who are Sixofour Life?
Growing up in Vancouver,
Caleb Lee and Steve Jin met
as teenagers, have maintained a
strong friendship, and a love of
luxury timepieces. Their
company, Sixofour Life, is a
partnership that is backed by
Caleb?s 16 years of experience
and knowledge in the art of
Swiss luxury watches and
Steve?s work as a technology
producer with Apple, one of the
world?s most recognized brands.
Together they produced their
sold-out first collection
SWC1988, so named to honour
their graduation from
Sir Winston Churchill High
School in 1988.
Bringing the world a high quality,
luxury lifestyle brand of watches
is no small feat for Lee and Jin,
as the home base for this
industry is thousands of miles
away in Switzerland. The
country is the birthplace of the
legendary houses of horlogerie ?
Breitling, IWC, Hublot,
Vacheron Constantin, Patek
Philippe, Audemars Piguet, the
list is endless - whose timepieces
28
28

become part of the historical record by
fetching astronomical amounts at
auction.
Sixofour Life timepieces are a reflection
and homage to the continually changing
life on the Canadian west coast.
The founders wanted to create a
unique style and aesthetic that
reflects the city?s growing place
on the world?s stage as a luxury
destination and firmly grounded
on the things that make living in
BC so amazing: the sea, the sky,
the majestic mountains.
The Series One watches have
automatic movement (Miyota
8200 Series), sapphire crystal
glass, open back glass, AISI
certified 316L stainless steel,
and water 28resistant to 50m.
28
When asked what sets
Sixofour Life watches
apart from the
competition, Caleb
shares three points.
?We believe that in our
design, we have made
something that feels
both modern and
vintage simultaneously.
Our watches reflect an
affordable luxury that
allows them to be
accessible to a wider
audience.
29

Lastly, our experience in the Swiss
luxury watch industry. That ability to
navigate an industry that very few
people have been a part of gives us an
advantage when sourcing materials,
parts, and manufacturers.?
The brand has garnered a fistful of
brand ambassadors who are known for
strength, power, and determination. NBA
Sacramento Kings' Frank Mason III, NFL
corner back Justin Bethel of the
Baltimore Ravens, UFC Featherweight
Champion Max Holloway, 12th ranked
UFC fighter Felice Herrig, rising hip hop
artist DKay, and Vancouver-based Juno
award-winning musician Moka Only.
Moka Only only recently reconnected
with his passion for luxury timepieces
and has been busy building his
collection.
The relationship between the musician
and the makers began in early 2018
after Moka Only came across the
Sixofour Life Instagram account. An
exchange followed, and a dinner meeting
solidified the new friendship and the
presentation of an ambassadorship
watch.
?Steve and Caleb make a great team,
and with the combination of a great
product and the visuals, I feel they have
really captured the essence of
Vancouver. The colourways on the dials
of the watches and the cushion case
design caught my fancy right off the
bat, not to mention the ?area themes?
that go along with the models and
colours. My personal fave has been the
?Robson Violet.?I get a lot of wear out of
it and a lot of attention.?

Their artistry is truly derived from
experience, rather than from being
school taught, and their manual skills
go hand-in-hand with the study of
secrets that only Master craftsmen
can pass down from generation to
generation.
The original designs are always
created by-hand, first sketched in
pencil by Stefano Ricci himself, and
then passed to the silversmiths.
The exquisite bowls, serving platters,
plates, and vases, all contain
depictions of nature?s strongest
animals, including the company?s
eagle icon, lions, giant octopus,
elephants, and more.
36
36
The pair works in tandem, creating
pieces from hand using only a pencil,
marker, tar, chisels, and various
hammering tools. The output is
relative to each project undertaken?a
chalice can take one week, a tray
around 15 days, and an incredible
centerpiece a month or more.
The sketches are first applied to the
silver, which is then tapped out from
the inside of the vessel. Once
complete, the vessel is filled with tar,
and the exterior is sculpted. Each
piece is polished to perfection and set
aside for inspection. This routine is
completed day-after-day by the two
who have made it their passion to
continue the trade of their fathers.
37

On your next visit to the Stefano Ricci
boutique in Vancouver?s Luxury Zone, take
note of the arrangement on the entry table. Below

bowl is resplendent with an intricately chiseled
biblical story of the procession of the animals to th

On a beautiful May evening,
Livingspace celebrated their
30th anniversary with a grand reveal
event that showcased a $2-million
expansion and renovation.
44
The luxury home décor retailer grew to an
incredibly impressive 30,000-square-foot
from a somewhat paltry 19,000-square-feet.
The launch event was a wonderfully warm
celebration which included suppliers, brand
partners from Europe, the cities top interior
designers, and VIPs.
44

Owner Ross Bonetti welcomed Maria Porro of
Porro S.p.A, Alessandro and Susanna Minotti of
Minotti S.p.A, Carola Bestetti, CEO/Designer of
Living Divani, Carolina Lanzani, owner of MDF
Italia, and we want to give a special shout-out to
the always impeccably dressed Aleem Kassam of
Kalu Interiors.
?After 30 years in business, we felt a complete
redesign was the perfect way to celebrate and to
assure our customers we plan to get better with
age,? said Bonetti. ?We're thrilled to showcase
Paola Lenti and Molteni&C/ Dada - some of the
best Italian designers in the world - in a unique
space that authentically captures the spirit of
these iconic brands.?
Housed in a 1930's-era printing factory in the
Armoury District of Vancouver, the Livingspace
expansion involved adding the fifth floor to its
showroom. Guests delighted in partaking in a
?Vespa tour?around the Grand Milano Cathedral,
coming upon the unexpected rooftop garden
courtyard, and discovering the power of the lime
green Lamborghini Huracan LP580 Coupe
alongside the orange Aperol Aperitivo soda
fountain.
44
44

46
Paola Lenti, renowned for its
sophisticated use of colour and
innovative materials, features both
indoor and outdoor furniture set
against the original, industrial
factory space. In contrast,
Canada's first Molteni&C/Dada
monobrand showroom offers a
more refined and intimate
experience as you move through
the space with individual room-like
settings revealing the latest in
kitchens, closets, and furniture.
Throughout the renovation
process, Livingspace worked
diligently to ensure its coveted
heritage location was preserved,
and the result is a gorgeous
contemporary layout that is
purposefully juxtaposed with the
building's nearly century-old
history.
46

I
? t's been an incredible 30 years. We are so fortunate to
work with sought-after designers and suppliers who have an
incredible talent for balancing art and design. It is extremely
heartwarming to witness the support shown by these key players
in the interior design world for Vancouver's burgeoning home
design and décor industry.?
Since opening its doors in 1988, Livingspace has evolved from a
furniture-only retailer to a one-stop destination for building a
picture-perfect modern lifestyle. The Vancouver-based retailer is
already looking towards the future with the anticipated arrival of a
Minotti monobrand showroom later this year.
To experience Livingspace's impressive redesign,
visit the showroom between Monday and Saturday,
at 1706 West 1st Avenue in Vancouver, BC.

Since 1989, Fendi Casa has
created furniture and objects for
the home that bring the unique Fendi
edge into the worlds personal and
commercial spaces, all with timeless
design elegance and aesthetic dimension.
At Salon del Mobile.Milano 2019,
Luxury Living Group presented the third
collaboration between the Italian fashion
house and Christina Celestino, famed
architect and interior designer. This
latest partnership entitled ?Back Home?
offers a high-end take on the
sentimental perception of the comforts
of home and the furniture pieces that
bring back fondness of family.
52

54
The lush décor included adjustable
lamps, vibrant hand-woven carpets,
cufflink-inspired mirrors, and limited
edition (and incredibly pricy) side-tables
inspired by a 1983 Karl Lagerfeld FF
logo doodle [1]. Upholstered sofas, in
materials including marbles and onyxes,
metallic surfaces, and unexpected colour
combinations, were the stars of the
collection, around which all other pieces
resided.
The colour palette is characterized by
Cape Town in South Africa, evoking
nature in powder blues, greens, neutral
gradations of grey, and splashes of
saturated colour applied to textile
accessories and complementary
furnishing items.
Individual pieces were robust with details like Selleria
piping, zippers on the sofa and chair upholstery, the FE
bag buttons, and the iconic logo F is FENDI logo, struct
fabrics and three-dimensional patterns, and graphic det
and lines.
Stand-out pieces included the new Anna Armchair [2]
inspired by Fendi?s global office building - the Palazzo
della Civiltà Italiana, which is one of Rome?s most icon
structures, and the Thea Chair [3] which can also be
54
found in the 2019 outdoor collection [4]?a whole line o
comfortable stylish furniture which is 100% animal-free
and vegan!
In Vancouver, the Fendi Casa Collections and
catalogues, are available at Major Interiors located at
300 West Pender Street. Visit Monday through

ar from fads and fashions, above and beyond all

collection offers a lifestyle free from compromise, and a

Bentley Motors?celebrated the company?s centennial at

Bugatti Home, perhaps the most
eagerly awaited luxury collection
of 2019, showcased an extremely
hi-tech, contemporary line to the public, which
interprets the values of the hyper sports cars
brand founded in 1909 in Molsheim, Alsace
by Ettore Bugatti.
Everything in the collection, which bears the
signatures of two of the most prestigious
international designers, Carlo Colombo and
Toan Nguyen, alludes to performance,
technology and elegance, essential features of
the prestigious Bugatti hyper sports cars.

Exclusive upholsteries, the rare Sodalite gemstone, a
reminder of Bugatti Blue, Striato Olimpico marble, and
incredibly soft high-performance technical fabrics enable
luxury and technology to be combined.
The curves that made the French automotive company
immortal provide the inspiration for the sinuous profiles
from the walls and windows to the wood paneling and
carpets, putting the details of the collection in the spotlight.
In Vancouver, the Bentley and Bugatti Home Collections
and catalogues, are available at Major Interiors located at
300 West Pender Street. Visit Monday through Saturday or

At the pinnacle of high horology and understated
elegance, the Maison Vacheron Constantin creates
timepieces with unique technical and aesthetic signatures and an
extremely high level of finishing touches.
The luxury Swiss timepiece Maison, with over two hundred and sixty
years of heritage, launched its first Western Canada boutique on
prestigious Alberni Street in Vancouver?s Luxury Zone.
64
Alberni Street is recognized as one of Canada?s most desirable
luxury retail addresses, offering a convenient shopping experience
and proximity to hundreds of best-in-class retailers, in keeping with
Vacheron Constantin?s high level of sophistication and commitment
to outstanding customer service.

The interior of the boutique is imbued with
elegance and noble materials ? wood,
bronze and leather ? which create a
hushed, discreetly luxurious atmosphere.
This is the Maison?s seventh opening in
North America, Toronto, Beverley Hills,
Costa Mesa, Las Vegas, New York, and
Miami.
Built upon a legacy of innovation and the
pursuit of excellence, each timepiece is
crafted in Geneva, Switzerland with care
and passion by the finest watchmakers and
craftspersons.
Known for achieving monumental technical
feats as well as timepieces with beautiful
finishing, the new downtown boutique
carries the entire range of watches, as well
as boutique-exclusive models, and offers
the rare Les Cabinotiers service, which
makes bespoke pieces tailored to the
client?s desires, and one-of-a-kind
masterpieces.
?We are delighted to have the opportunity
to serve Canadians in British Columbia with
a new boutique strategically located in the
Alberni luxury district. The Western location
will serve to complement our existing East
coast Toronto, Ontario boutique and
enhance our Canadian client?s
understanding of Vacheron Constantin, and
the Maison?s commitment to belle haute
horlogerie,? said Leslie Kobrin, Vacheron
Constantin President of the Americas.

In May, Sharp Magazine gathered an
exclusive group of west coast watch
collectors and VVIPs to preview the latest
Vacheron Constantin?s timepieces, including
the new Fiftysix and Patrimony blue dial
watches.
65

The on-location event was followed
by an intimate dinner at the
award-winning and internationally
renowned Hawksworth Restaurant,
under the deft guidance of chef
Stephanie Noel.
Each dish was inspired by a
different Vacheron Constantin
watch, such as the Fiftysix, for
which Chef Noel created the second
course consisting of a sweet pea
agnolotti with morels and white
asparagus.

n just a few years, Dr. Christopher Pavlou
has become one of Vancouver?s leading
aesthetics doctors, due in no small part by continually
updating his practice to include the latest advances in
medical aesthetics and medical grade skincare products.
He also travels the world as an invited guest speaker,
trains in new treatments and technologies, and
endeavours to bring the most up-to-date treatments to
his patients in Vancouver.
When planning to launch Skin Technique, Dr. Pavlou
wanted to create a space where both patients and staff
would enjoy coming to. An environment that was both
inspiring and aesthetically beautiful.
