Project 9 was one of my original home décor crushes when I lived nearby on South Park Street. I’d pop in, ogle their expensive selection of condo-sized furniture, and then attempt to find it all elsewhere on a student budget. Of course, I never did. Today, it’s still a nice shop in a great location on Dresden Row. The windows make for great lighting and make it easy for something to catch your eye as you stroll by. I do find it borders on overstuffed most of the time though. The front area is nicely staged, but once you walk through to the Queen Street side, you’re usually dodging ottomans in order to take a peak. I haven’t been nearly as excited with my recent visits simply because I find the styles haven’t really updated much over the past few years and the staff haven’t been all that welcoming. Still, it’s a good spot to find furniture for the downtown condo lifestyle that you won’t find at the warehouses.

I’ve been in here many times, and thought it to be over priced foo-foo. But then I bought a condo and needed furniture. The more I looked in the normal furniture stores, the more I hated. So I went here on a whim one day. If you’ve been there, you’ve seen the huge Italian leather sofa. The brown one that’s been there a long while. I had to go home and measure the room. Then I bought it. The price was more than I wanted to spend, but, hey, I already found lots of $ 3000 – 4000 sofas that I hated. So I got what I really wanted. They delivered it and put it in place. I’m happy, This is a good store with good stuff, and I will be back someday, and probably buy something else really excellent that I didn’t really mean to… and I’m ok with that.

Project 9 for most people is where they make their wish list as they stroll though. You will find very high-end furniture in every shape, color and size. This is where you will sink into that awesome leather and know you are in luxury. I love the furniture here! For now, I can only love from the outside, it is the place to shop if you have the expense account to do so. You will be the envy of your friends if you shop here. The designs are very clean and sexy. Everything you would want in a piece of furniture, I can say, this furniture is a long term purchase. Enjoy!
