I don’t know about you, but every time I see a building with paper on the windows, I hope for a new design shop. Taking over the old ‘Big Bop’ building at the corner of Bathurst and Queen (651 Queen St West), Crate & Barrel’s sister store will be opening tomorrow. CB2 is a the trendier, younger sister of Crate & Barrel. What a great way to rejuvenate this little stretch of downtown. I can’t wait to see the restoration of this old building!
While in the area also check out Design Republic at 639 Queen St West. A great mix of industrial materials and clean lines – my favourite is their custom tables and benches from reclaimed wood. Gorgeous!
