With Fashion House’s iconic 150-foot frontage on King Street, Freed Developments opted to celebrate King Street’s heritage as a fashion district. The project combines and connects the restoration of a silverplate historic building with a sleek new glass construction, that when completed, will house retail and restaurants on its ground level. By retaining 11 up-and-coming Canadian fashion designers to create stunning installations on the landings, the condominium building is transformed, in the words of Peter Freed, into a “modern canvas for personal design expression.”
A sky-park complete with a swimming pool promises to be the height of fashion. Dashing lipstick-red window coverings on the building’s exteriors (all of which shine a crisp, clean white inside) complete the fashion-forward design statement.
