WANT Apothecary, a Montreal-based boutique, opens its first Toronto location with Drew Mandel Architects as executive architect.

The interior design, by Maria Di Ioia of IDEA Design, was “conceived as a way to recapture the essence of the intimate, trusted, and neighbourly retail experience of a bygone era. Loosely inspired by the atmosphere of a 19th century pharmacy, this concept shop presents a unique opportunity for customers to discover a trusted resource for their style and beauty needs.”
