By Design Modern is a brand that emerged from the esteemed furniture business, Sugar Barrel Antiques, which has been serving customers for 52 years. Initially focused on sourcing local antiques, the brand's founder eventually shifted to importing traditional European antiques, providing the community with quality pieces for three decades. In 1999, By Design Modern expanded its reach by establishing an online store.

In 2004, the brand recognized the rising popularity of mid-century modern aesthetics and the demand for Scandinavian goods. This prompted the owner to embark on regular trips to Denmark, hand-selecting Danish mid-century furniture to import to Vancouver. With a passion for offering unique and high-quality furniture and lighting, By Design Modern caters to discerning clients seeking an alternative to mass-produced knock offs.
