Supermarket

Another very cool place to shop designer items is Supermarket.

Their website is really easy and fun to navigate. You can shop by categories or by designers. Much like etsy.com but more with design flavor.

ReadyMade: Store

Another cool store to check out. ReadyMade store. You can order one year subscription gift and other cool DIY items unique to ReadyMade magazine.

Our favorite item there?

Design Public

We have a couple design shops that we want to introduce you during this weekend just in case you're waiting for the right moment to get started with Christmas shopping (like us...)
First one is Design Public.

Their selection is not the largest but have wide variety of items for home, office and places in between. It kind of gives you the feel of browsing through the Target website with Design on it.

Vitamin D(esign)

These bags are away cool!! All found on VitaminD(design). Especially love the way Stockholm bag (bottom) is constructed with felt material.

design3000.de

Interesting in getting some design goodies for holiday seasons? Check out design3000.de from Germany. It costs more to ship stuff to U.S. but nice collection of unique items.

FLOWmarket

Is there a price for empty objects that provoke considered thinking? We love the abstractness of the approach. It certainly makes us think.

FLOWmarket is a shop designed to inspire consumers to think, live and consume more holistic. The core of FLOWmarket is the scarcity goods collection where present imbalances from the 3 FLOW dimensions (individual, collective and environmental flow) have been adressed and transformed into physical products. Scarcity goods products in the shape of aesthetically designed (empty) packings with humorous and thought awakening prints that consumers can buy in the venueshops or via the online shop. Further on FLOWmarket collaborate with designers and artists around the globe that fits with our mindset, humour and aestetichs.
