MISSONI AND AMEXON DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION PARTNER FOR THE LAUNCH OF MISSONI SKY, A FASHION-INSPIRED TOWER SET TO ELEVATE THE ART OF LUXURY LIVING
Blending Italian Heritage with Modern Design, MISSONI SKY Sets a New Standard in Luxury Residential Living
Missoni, world-renowned Italian fashion house, makes its debut in downtown Toronto with MISSONI SKY, a luxurious residential tower being developed with Amexon Development Corporation, one of Toronto’s leading real estate developers. This visionary tower will blend the world of high fashion with elevated urban living, establishing a new global benchmark for fashion-inspired developments.
Inspired by Missoni’s heritage, MISSONI SKY promises to redefine luxury living with its masterful blend of artistic expression and modern functionality. The tower will showcase Missoni’s signature geometric style, seamlessly integrating the brand’s iconic zigzag patterns and vibrant colour harmonies into every element — from the expansive lobbies and rooftop terraces to the fashion-inspired amenities and sophisticated interiors of the exclusive residences.
“MISSONI SKY represents the successful translation of our brand’s style into an immersive living experience,” said Alberto Caliri, Creative Director of Missoni Home. “This development brings Missoni’s artistic essence to life, infusing every corner of the tower with our distinctive approach.”
Elevating the Art of Luxury Living
MISSONI SKY’s design pays homage to Missoni’s rich artistic legacy, featuring the brand’s use of bold colors, iconic patterns, and intricate details across its furnishings, textiles, and wallpapers. Each space within the tower exudes a modern, unmistakable Missoni ambiance, creating a harmonious blend of beauty and functionality. From the meticulously curated interiors to the spectacular amenities, every element of the tower will embody the brand’s heritage, offering residents an environment where they can craft their own legacy amidst beauty and harmony.
To bring this vision to life, Missoni teamed up with Toronto-based design studio II BY IV DESIGN. Known for their innovative approach, II BY IV DESIGN has adeptly translated Missoni’s fashion-forward ethos into the tower’s interiors. “Working with Missoni has been an incredible journey, allowing us to craft living spaces that feel like stepping into a piece of art – modern, bold, and timeless,” said Dan Menchions, Principal at II BY IV DESIGN.
A Beacon of Contemporary Architecture
Located in the vicinity of the King-Jarvis design district in downtown Toronto, MISSONI SKY will stand as a beacon of contemporary architecture. The tower’s sleek, modern silhouette emerges from an elegant eight-storey brick podium that will house a boutique hotel, restaurants, and luxurious residential spaces. Rising above the podium is a striking glass tower offering panoramic views of Lake Ontario and beyond. Designed by the award-winning CORE Architects, the building “pushes creative boundaries and sets a new standard for urban living in Toronto,” said Deni Poletti, lead architect at CORE Architects.
