Couleurs, Montreal

Boasting furniture, accessories and objets d'art from the 20th century, this little store is like IKEA for those who would not be caught dead shopping at a superstore. Still, many colors, shapes and designs here are quite reminiscent of the Swedish giant's more upscale products; there is a definite slant towards Scandinavian design. It makes a great stop on any tour of the shops on Rue St-Denis , and for those with the budget it is a source of limitless unique gift ideas.
