Before & After: There’s a Light in the Attic of This Reimagined Toronto Row House

The family sat on two dozen different sofas trying to find the right mix of comfort and sleekness before deciding custom was the way to go. A deep-cushioned, slim-backed piece—built by Luke Parsons Millwork—fits just right, and somehow makes the whole space just seem bigger. It also features pull-out footstools, a coffee table, and concealed storage for blankets. The custom upholstery is by The Big Stuff.
