Green acres is the place to be. Marston & Langinger opens their SoHo store today, and it should make for some delicious browsing, since it may be hard to take home a new greenhouse in a bag. The English shop's arrival in our fair city either signals the resurgence of what Martha Stewart started years ago, or they are very late to the party.
Specializing in expensive things, but to be fair, well made things, Marston & Langinger's lineup includes glass buildings, furnishings, and specialty building products such as custom paint, doors and natural flooring. Heck we don't even know what the prices are yet, but we can guess, can't we?
What will be great about this shop is if it brings new products and materials that are not available here. We shall see. As for the English country style, it is not very much in fashion, but it could be. No one relaxes in as stylish AND cozy way as the British. (Thanks, Charlotte!) MGR

Wonderful store! If you're ever in Soho definetely check this gem out. Great for accessories, such as unusual hurricanes and lighting. If you're not into "all things British" everyone should be into their paint line that doesn't off gas and lasts forever! Even though I can't afford a conservatory, at least I can still dream.
I have the ultimate wish-list from Marston & Langinger and I never thought I would! I prefer very modern furniture. However, there is a wood table and chairs that's so plain - it could totally fit with Alessi tableware. I love their fabulous mirrored wall sconces for candlelight - very elegant. They also have some really beautiful iron tables where you have a choice of stone tops. Who knew something so English country would have a few modern pieces worth plucking? The store itself is so beautiful to look at that it really is worth the trip to SoHo.
