This little design/gift shop in the Harbourfront Centre is a gem in a neighbourhood of uninspiring shopping (nearby Queens Quay Terminal has shops mostly selling Canadian souvenirs like maple syrup etc.). As Kris mentioned, it feels like an art gallery shop and in fact, there are some MoMA design items for the kitchen. You will find lots of stuff by Canadian designers, including homeware, art books, CD's, and jewellery. Some fun things I found on my last visit: those thin yet indestructible folding wallets, staple-less staplers, black & blum lunch boxes, whitelines notebooks, and a nice selection of greeting cards (including wedding cards for same-sex couples). Oh, and of course, maple syrup. Definitely worth a browse if you are in the area.

I really liked BOUNTY. It has a lot of artsy stuff in it that you might find at a MOMA. In fact, I saw a lot of stuff there that they'd sell at SFMOMA. They also have a bunch of stuff from local artists. Prices are a little bit on the high side, but I love the stuff they sell here and would love to come back just to wander around and see what they have.
