STOOPS Design

Slow long weekend moments in the garden 🌿 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A new little corner at Sarah’s — complete with beautiful green chairs from HAY paired with a STOOPS Design container planting. We love how this space came together for quiet mornings, coffee breaks, and lingering outdoors a little longer this season. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Another stunning day planting at this breathtaking West Vancouver estate. From the grand front entrance to the tennis courts and expansive pool deck, every planter and garden bed was thoughtfully curated to complement the scale, architecture, and timeless elegance of the property. Featuring dramatic flax grasses, salvia, echinacea, sculptural senecio, lush sedums, and vibrant seasonal colour with trailing ‘Mango Punch’ petunias and dahlia ‘Mystic Fantasy’ — these container gardens are designed to evolve beautifully into summer and beyond. The result is a refined outdoor experience that feels elevated, welcoming, and effortlessly luxurious from every angle.

Summer Planting in progress 🌿🌸 There’s something so special about designing for a heritage home — honoring the character and timeless architecture while bringing in a fresh layer of seasonal beauty. For this Kerrisdale planting, we focused on creating a soft, romantic summer palette with layered textures, cascading blooms, and lush greenery that feels both elegant and welcoming. We always begin with the foundation: selecting planters that complement the home’s scale, charm, and architectural details. Thoughtfully chosen vessels help anchor the design and create a cohesive look that feels collected over time. From there, the planting brings everything to life. We incorporated a mix of seasonal blooms, trailing textures, and pollinator-friendly plants to create movement, colour, and interest throughout the season — while also welcoming bees, butterflies & hummingbirds into the garden. 🐝🦋🌸 Summer bookings are filling up fast.

Wishing all the moms a very special day today and always.🤍​​​​​​​​ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​​​​​​​​ We’ll be spending the weekend close to home, likely in the garden where everything feels a little softer, a little more grounded (weeding aside, of course). 😉​​​​​​​​ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​​​​​​​​ However you choose to spend today—celebrating, remembering, or simply being—take a moment for yourself. To rest, to breathe, to appreciate the small things.​​​​​​​​ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​​​​​​​​ Xx​​​​​​​​ Sarah & Cindy

“Gardens are a place of connection. Every time we enter our garden we connect, be it with friends and family, nature or ourselves.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ At Stoops, we believe connection grows the same way beauty does — gently, intentionally, and over time. It’s found in shared moments, quiet reflection, and the simple act of tending something meaningful. Every space we design is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and experience the richness of what’s been cultivated with care. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Summer has arrived in Vancouver!☀️🌸 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A storefront should do more than just display what’s inside—it should tell your story before the door even opens. These custom signature pink planters at Rebecca Bree Boutique create a soft, feminine moment that perfectly complements the boutique’s aesthetic. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Filled with lush summer blooms, layered textures, and fresh seasonal color, the containers bring life, warmth, and a sense of arrival to the sidewalk. It’s a first impression that feels intentional, inviting, and effortlessly beautiful. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And behind it all is Rebecca herself—the sweetest soul, inside and out—whose kindness and eye for beauty make the entire experience feel even more special. 💕 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photography & Container Design: @stoopsdesign
