Liberty Village

Liberty Village has lived many lives. 19th century prison, industrial-era factory hub, abandoned warehouse bohemian playground, home of the dotcom boom, condo developer’s dream. In modern times, this mini-hood's high density of young, affluent residents is a fatal attraction for discerning business folk. Some think Liberty Village represents the best of the city with the comfort of the 'burbs. Others say it's the complete opposite—a labyrinth of parking lots overrun by haughty couples raising French bulldogs. You decide.

When award-winning designer Amy Kwong moved out of her home studio, she decided to go the extra mile. Finding a space larger than she needed let her open a store in addition to the studio. With lots of elbow grease and paint, she breathed new life into her upper-deck digs. IHACOY celebrates the weird and the wonderful. The selection is mix of charismatic house-brand products (neighbourhood keychains, gold-foil greeting cards) and rare, designer-friendly goods (ostrich pillow, helvetica perfume). Her Kwik-Print foil-stamping machine is proudly displayed, inviting us all to see how the sausage is made. To that point, guests are encouraged to hang out with her and her cohort.
