Editorial Review for Design Within Reach – by Melissa Kirsch
The Scene
Aficionados of DWR's much-loved website will swoon for this rough space that's chock-a-block with each and every item they've ogled online. Now all those mid-century repros are truly within reach, in a pleasant, bustling meat-market loft that's decorated with giant photos, bios and quotations from design deities like Charles & Ray Eames, Isamu Noguchi and Alvar Aalto. Remember it's a showroom, so items still have to be ordered. But at least you can now see them in person.
The Goods
Le Corbusier confort fauteuils, George Nelson platform benches, Arco lamps--if it's a mid-century classic, it's here, and it's probably available in your choice of upholstery or color when relevant. Greatest hits from the 1950s share space with pieces by present-day heroes--check out those Philippe Starck transparent La Marie chairs. Of particular note are the Wall of Chairs, 1958 Henningsen Artichoke Lamp and Vitra-produced work by designer Jean Prouvé.
