"As the best Toronto destination for design, architecture and advertising books, independent retailer Swipe has survived multiple moves by holding true to a dedication of serving the designer community with the best on the market. Their loyal audience has been purchasing books, magazines and design objects from them in various locations around the city since 1987 and currently from their new-(ish) space in the historic, creative hub at 401 Richmond. While you’re there pick up a Rooster Sriracha wallet, some Pantone Coffee Cups or the latest design tome from Phaidon." - Jacknife
