This fine food emporium marries Old
World and modernist touches. Undulating acrylic
lighting elements lead the shopper through the narrow
space. Materials used include textured marble and
granite, sparkling glass mosaics, sleek stainless
steel, and mellow walnut paneling. The circulation
plan incorporates tasting stations, demo areas,
and a kitchen theatrically revealed behind textured
glass panels. The seafood area features honeycomb
panels with gradually changing hues, evoking the
iridescent sparkle of fish scales.selection.

A restored 1916 train station houses
Canada’s largest (31,000 sq. ft.) liquor store.
Original ticket wickets and gates are incorporated,
open-backed perimeter tapered metal fixtures expose
restored marble, and country-of-origin signage pays
homage to the travel heritage. The 38-ft.-high great
hall precludes track lighting, so fixtures are self-illuminated;
metal rod suspension allows for overhead chandeliers
without marring the restored plaster ceiling. The
tiered Clock Tower Display Case (not shown here)
made of steel finished in satin epoxy has sandblasted
glass shelving.
