Toronto’s Bomou Bakery invites visitors into an immersive journey that celebrates one of life’s most simple pleasures. Designed as both a workshop and a stage, it’s a place where one can participate in the company’s narrative brought to life. RZ Interiors designed a multi-sensory experience that weaves together best practice from hospitality, restaurant and retail into a destination open from morning to night. At the outset, the decision was made to work closely with Odima Construction. Having the constructor at the table from the beginning proved to be a strategic move; it allowed the entire team to work in lock step and ultimately resulted in effortless communication and a smooth construction process.

Banquette seating creates maximum flexibility for different group sizes to sit comfortably, and the shape of each custom-made table subtly evokes the shape of different loaves of bread. 

The practical matter of production is no less thoughtful. Generous access to the rear of the store is provided for staff and moments of drama are created where production and consumption overlap. This creates a stage set for patrons to observe the mastery involved in baking and chocolate-making.

From the street, visitors’ curiosity is piqued by a selection of pedestals designed to elevate the humble loaf to work of art while still creating visibility into the store. Once inside, the restrained palette creates an air of calm that allows the freshly baked goods take centre stage. Materials were carefully selected to project an air of luxury while at the same time being stain repellent. Brass inlay in the floor creates passive wayfinding, encouraging patrons to venture deeper into the store to begin their exploration of the pastries, sandwiches and chocolates on display. Anchoring the space at the front of the store is a recessed, branded wall with lush planting creating a welcome biophilic addition to the interior. A mix of hard and soft surfaces was carefully considered to ensure acoustic comfort when the bakery is full; even at capacity the store is designed for a gentle hum rather than distracting cacophony.  

 

The intricacy of RZ Interior’s design and technical solutions at Bomou Bakery creates a communal, and inspiring culinary experience that results in a space that’s a high-end homage to the quintessential Parisienne bakery right in the heart of Toronto.
