I was walking up St-Laurent the other day and saw a dismaying "À Louer" sign in a window. The space once occupied by Domison, a local stylish furniture design company was now vacant. The independent store had been open since 2008 and carried not only the company's own line, but other accessories and works by local designers. While the retail spaces in Montreal and Toronto no longer exist since the summer, I hope the company will unveil their continued existence in showroom form (at least?!) in the future.
