The new owners hired the Toronto firm II by IV Design , the same company that designed Stock , to now remodel the space . The redesign included doing away with Stock 's black leather furniture , which Khabouth described as very " manly " , and replacing it with " a lot of velvet , a lot of velures , burgundies , blues and golds in order to make it a little more feminine friendly " . Hundreds of pieces of furniture were custom built off-site at a shop in Woodbridge , just outside Toronto , over the course of about four months . The actual remodeling work took place in late August and early September 2014 over just five days as the new owners rushed to be ready in time for Toronto International Film Festival . While Stock 's physical bar remained relatively unchanged , the lounge area was completely revamped with new lighting , furniture and a DJ booth
