Then Cooper, an interior stylist who owns Toronto-based Hollie Cooper Interiors, heard an advertisement for a company called Magic that promised windows with retractable screens and folding window walls - exactly the kinds of things she was looking for and what she ultimately ended up purchasing to include in the renovations. But early research showed that walls like these were out of the couple’s budget. To make that happen in their home, they began looking at window walls as an option. It was really important to us,” Cooper says. “Part of those renovations were that we wanted indoor/outdoor living.

"The Port Colborne Magic Windows display is really our last chance to demonstrate the technology in an outdoor setting this season." "Magic Windows are an inspiring and effective way of adding vibrancy to downtown storefronts, especially between the months of October and March when darkness descends earlier," says Craig Thompson, president of Ballinran Entertainment. This week in Port Colborne, Ont., a new Magic Windows display is illuminating a vacant downtown storefront with a theme that celebrates the community's ties to water as a Lake Erie harbour and key stop along the Welland Canal. Produced in partnership with the Downtown Port Colborne BIA, this pilot project is initiated by STEPS Public Art, a Toronto-based charity that supports public art projects that transform urban spaces with support from RBC, the Canada Council for the Arts and the Ontario Arts Council. A unique window projection project sparked by Lights On Stratford is now expanding to other communities across Ontario. Magic Windows, created by film, television and digital studio Ballinran Entertainment, adapts projection technology to allow stunning visuals to be displayed on storefront windows, often with music and interactive audience engagement elements. ![]()
