Owner Dan Fergus, who founded the store seven years ago, is transforming the space into the Brandon, a gallery that will have "exhibits featuring emerging artists, artist lectures and music performances." His partner in the venture is artist Cody Ledvina, who was a co-creator of the Joanna art space.

Domy focused on books, periodicals and products that "concentrate on national (and international) contemporary art, literature and culture." It also exhibited a variety of art.

The Domy Books store in Austin closed last year and was transformed by Mikaylah Bowman and Travis Kent, Domy employees, into Farewell Books, which opened in February.
