Now that everyone from GOOD to Target to Banksy is doing a pop-up store, we can start getting a little more discerning about which ones are worth visiting, and which are just basking in the light of a clever new marketing trend.
Toronto furniture purveyor Ministry of the Interior is making its own stab at the pop-up store starting tomorrow, and this one looks to fit neatly in the former category. Running from Tuesday to Saturday only, it features the work of Swedish designer Jens Fager, notable lately for his "Raw" Collection of rough-hewn, painted furniture, unveiled earlier this year at Milan.

Well being a native of Toronto I think as design stands it's cool however the price tags don't reflect the ultimate outcome that you really get. I believe the materials are beautiful and elegant however paying 4K for a desk or 22K for a sofa is still ridiculous. And if this is still a standard in mass production design then we still have a very long way before we get to wherever the heck we need to be. And as beautiful as they are this should not reflect a norm of industrial design.
Sorry to bust the Core77 bubble.
