Cozey Flagship wins Best of Canada 2025

WINNER IN SINGLE DETAIL, CANADIAN INTERIORS

The Cozey flagship store by LAAB has been honored at the 2025 Best of Canada Awards.

A singular streetside retail space by LAAB that stops passersby in their tracks, sparks smiles, and instantly generates a “Wow Effect”. Not only did it succeed in capturing the attention of Toronto passersby, but it also won over the Best of Canada competition jury, earning this year's Single Detail award.

Organized by Canadian Interiors magazine, this prestigious competition celebrates excellence in interior design across the country. Among the many projects in the running, the Cozey window showcase stood out for its boldness and thoughtful creativity: a monumental woven structure, both surprising and playful, evoking the softness of a cocoon and the strength of a confident architectural gesture.

This distinction crowns the creative work carried out in collaboration with Studio Officiel (industrial designer for the window showcase) and with Cossette leading Canadian ad agency (brand strategy).

Our goal was to transcend the simple function of a furniture showcase to turn it into an immersive experience and a true visual signature: a manifesto that binds the relationship between design, brand, and retail. - Michel Lauzon, LAAB founder.

The project is featured in the special Best of Canada Awards issue of Canadian Interiors magazine, July/August 2025.
