The redevelopment at the Shops of Don Mills brought with it an array of high-end retail stores and restaurants to the neighbourhood. The inward-looking outdoor shopping centre is gradually being encircled by condominiums, bringing a breath of fresh air to Don Mill's housing market. With two developments down, developers Cadillac Fairview along with FRAM Building Group are working away on the third residence – Flaire. A previous article featured on UrbanToronto introduced the building to you; today we're checking out the model suite.

Featuring designs by Munge Leung, Flaire's model suite hopes to entice buyers by emphasizing the units' extensive living spaces and unique balconies. The building's location outside the core of Toronto affords purchasers the chance to buy units larger than possible downtown, while the lower density of surrounding neighbourhoods provides panoramic views of the skyline.

While the building may not have a downtown address, it nonetheless will be steps away from high-end shopping, dining and entertainment. Munge Leung channeled this sense of luxury with interiors that contrast sleek wood flooring with plush paneled walls and airy window treatments. The textural variety is offset by a relatively simple color palate, creating living spaces that flow together rather well.

Flaire will be composed of two 11-storey towers sharing a 4-storey podium. The building will contain 296 units ranging from 504 to 1,1000 square feet; those looking for larger units have the opportunity to combine units to create truly custom spaces.
