celebrating locally-owned for 16 years

It’s hard to believe that another year has gone by since our 15th anniversary; we’re now celebrating our Sweet Sixteen! When two NSCAD graduates created Attica, and opened its doors in 1995, it was the only contemporary store in Atlantic Canada; today has grown to be the largest in the region. Attica’s downtown Halifax store on Barrington Street features four floors of design for customers to enjoy. In St. John’s, Attica’s boutique on Freshwater Road is a little out of the way, and a lot out of the ordinary.

We focus on contemporary Canadian design, as well as bring in exciting furniture and accessories from abroad. Because we want to thank our customers for supporting us all of these years, we are offering, until July 23rd, 16% on all in-stock, regularly priced items, plus more in-store specials. Thank you Atlantic Canada!
