Fun to see local celebrity author, Douglas Coupland's (second home - he purchased the house next door to his main home) here in Vancouver featured in the New York Times recently. Coupland an artist before he became a writer, installed many works of art throughout this original midcentury home, including his own creations.
Coupland's "Downy Fabric Softener" sits in a hall with original flagstone flooring.
Douglas installed dice on the wall near the stairwell as an ode to artist Damien Hirst's pill paintings
Coupland applies white Lego building blocks to a post upstairs in his home along with his "Target Stack" installation.
