MoMA
DWR on Wooster St.
What kind of gifts does DWR have that you cannot find anywhere else? I think DRW is a bit tired.
Keiss- nothing more tiring than hearing someone complain about DWR.
Cooper-Hewitt Gift Shop
ABC Carpet and Home is a no-brainer for gifts (not all modern tho).
clio is the best.
Establishment on Gansevoort Street just opened!
MoMA or MOSS
MoMA or MOSS (used to be Alphabets on the UWS :(
Global Table on Sullivan St
Global Table! And Rare Device in Brooklyn :)
if i had one shop to choose it would be moss.
conran shop for sure
Moss Moss Moss! And DWR IS tired! Oy.
Takashimaya
mxyplyzyk (or however you spell it)
And OY YOURSELF, there is nothing wrong with DWR.
this list is incomplete without trunkt in tribeca
I'm surprised that Takashimaya received only a few votes...Anyway, that's my pick, and Moss is great, too.
Rare Device is absolutely the best!
It's small but filled to the brim with wonderful objects from small designers around the world.
Rare items.
bravo Rena!
Apartment 48 on West 17th in NYC is the best home design store ever! Everytime I walk in, I wish that I could just plop my tv in a corner somewhere and move in for good. The store is cozy, chock full of knick knacks you must touch and have. And Raymond, the owner, is bold, creative and an all around sweetheart.
