Southhill home

If you've ever read a Canadian shelter magazine, than you've undoubtedly come across the name Southhill Home. Nestled on Dupont street near Toronto's Designers Walk, Southhill carries a well edited collection of furniture and accessories from international designers that are often exclusive to the shop.

Southhill's knowledgeable staff and knack for stocking well-crafted standout pieces that appeal to both traditional and contemporary tastes has made them a must-visit for any design enthusiast... so obviously I had to stop by and check it out myself.

On my maiden voyage to the store, I couldn't help but ooh and ah over the eclectic offerings. Owner Paul Harper was kind enough to walk me through the showroom.
