Poised at a natural tension of eras. Toronto’s newly-opened Daphne is a contemporary and eclectic reimagining of the quintessential American bistro. Sprawling and set across a series of distinctive rooms, Daphne embodies both the unexpected while bringing in the warmth and nostalgia of New England prep. At once intimate and grand, eccentric and sculptural, convivial and experimental, the deeply imaginative space is reminiscent of a great residence that’s evolved over time, designed to create an experience of wonder and subtle awe.
Daphne is a world unto itself, awaiting discovery. The entirety of the furniture and lighting is custom designed, further establishing it as a space truly without parallel. The designer’s interiors often reference deeper inspiration from art, architecture, and cinema, and Daphne proves no exception. Unexpectedly playful and thoroughly redefining, the interior design takes on the timeless sophistication of the American bistro inspires guests to experience at once the joy of discovery and the effortless comfort of home.
