‘A Chance Encounter’ brings together Voisine/Voisin’s collection of everyday objects with everyone’s favourite house guests – Plants!

Over the last year plus, we’ve had to put a pause on our regular social calendars; no more dinner parties, no more casual hangouts. Our homes were de-animated without the normal collection of family and friends. Still, during this time we found new ways to enliven our homes. Voisine/Voisin’s new collection is born from this time. Each object is hand made with care and full of personalities to bring warmth and joy into spaces.

Guests are invited to visit Promise Supply’s home in Stackt market, Toronto’s design hub. Take a moment to introduce yourself to the collection of objects and make some new friends. See you there!

Voisine/Voisin is a design studio based in Toronto. We are guided by moments of simplicity and chance, ideas that collide effortlessly, the word on the tip of your tongue. Our practice involves the knowledge of materials through the process of making. We believe in lightness. We don’t believe in heaviness. We are form finding, not form generating. We believe in the longevity of handcrafts adapted to contemporary sensibilities.

Promise Supply is Toronto’s local plant shop. With two locations, one at Stackt Market, and one at Yorkville Village mall, you’ll find a great selection of quality houseplants and knowledgeable staff to help in your initial selection and through the ongoing care process.
