A Niche Market
My First Apartment caters to the generation of young urban professionals at the start of their careers. In other words, it’s for those who’ve escaped student living and are stepping out into the “real world.” The store offers trendy and unique items to fill every room from the bathroom to the bedroom, and all at reasonable prices. Shoppers can expect to find the affordability of big box stores, but the style and novelty of high-end boutiques. As a young entrepreneur herself, the owner knows what it’s like to be a young professional. When she couldn’t find a store that was geared for the market, she decided to open her own. She personally chooses and purchases items and even designs a few things.
Unusual, Modern and New
You can expect the unexpected at My First Apartment. The 1,000-square foot store has furnishings and items that you won’t find anywhere else. Not only are the designs modern, but they’re space-saving and geared to a tight budget. Browse through the store’s shelves and find a new kitchen gadget or discover the perfect accent pillow for your living room. Chances are you’ll be able to furnish your apartment with something few people already have.
A Fun Shopping Experience
The store’s décor is in itself young and urban. The dark hardwood floors and moveable lights give it a sophisticated feel. The store is even located in Centretown—a neighbourhood of young people. For decorating advice, the staff is more than happy to help. Being a young professional is stressful enough. Shopping for the perfect apartment shouldn’t be.
