The Avenue Road furniture showroom is three-level, 15 000 square-foot interior renovation of the former Consumers gas company building from 1907. Now, over 100 years later, a restoration was conceptualized by Yabu Pushelberg.

The project about the continued desire for quality inspired design, which is evidenced by its recent growth. They physically grew out of their old space. The showroom is a destination in itself and is unique in its concept � being a hybrid between a showroom and a gallery, where one can actually sit on (and purchase) the art.

The vast majority of the building�s historical qualities have been brought back to original form or strictly maintained in order to preserve the integrity of the space.

The furniture in the showroom was carefully selected from all over the world and is located in Toronto�s up-and-coming Leslieville neighborhood.
