Aēsop in Toronto
The newest Aēsop store in Toronto is located in bustling Yorkville. Designed in cooperation with the local Odami studio, its interior draws inspiration from the architectural and social history of the city center - from Victorian houses that are very popular in this district, to streets and squares where the local community has gathered for decades.
In the interior, it was decided to reinterpret traditional materials in a very cozy way. The walls and ceiling are painted a rich ruby shade, the dark note of which gives the interior an intimacy. Maple balusters - reminiscent of historic homes and porches found all over Yorkville - create the unconventional paneling that surrounds the room. In the center of the room is a large washbasin, and around it there is a space to relax: benches and a tea-making area.
The geometry of the interior resembles a busy city square: a large and open space with smaller enclaves around the perimeter. The cylindrical "Library of Scents" is almost camouflaged in one of the walls. Its door revolves to reveal the brand's collection of unconventional fragrances, as well as an infusion chamber for clothes needing a fragrant injection.
In this tranquil shop, customers can discover and choose from a full line of skin, hair and body care products distinguished by the highest quality plant and laboratory ingredients. Trained store consultants are able to advise on the products best suited to individual needs.
