Did I just read something about DC being the "next hot youth magnet city?"
Uhhhhh, ok. That's nice. But I'm more interested in this:
D.C. is ratcheting up its interior design game.
Where'dja read THAT?
Right here, Gentle Readers. You read it right here.
Look no further than 14th Street. I swear, why would anyone drive to the 'burbs when you can roll on over to 14th Street, park anywhere, and hit Mitchell Gold, GoodWood, Miss Pixie's, and Vastu, and then saunter over to Cork - a personal favorite of mine - and have a leisurely glass of wine and dinner?
Vastu is gaining momentum. I love it. It's locally owned and eminently cool, and Jason and Eric truly understand how to outfit urban spaces stylishly. (Urban= hip, but it also can = smaller scale.) They're filling a void.
The upholstery selection is fantastic. Colorful, textured, edgy, modern...
They customize sizes. That's their thing. Some clients of mine loved the Capri sofa, but it was a little too deep for them. So Vastu, being all custom and service oriented and stuff, had it made 3" shallower. Perfect. We paired it with the Serengeti chair and called it a day.
Did I mention that they're an authorized Knoll dealer? Total bonus. And their blog, Design Clique, is excellent. (They post really, really often. Bastards :) )
So stop reading this and just go. Tell them bossy color sent you. And have a fabulous time.
