A design store that even the aesthetically challenged would enjoy
Saturday, October 23, 2004
An import from England, the Terrance Conran shop is located under the Queensboro bridge. It contains two levels of housewares and furniture and interesting gifts. My husband, whom I generally think has little interest in aesthetics and is extremely frugal (bordering on cheap), was almost lured into buying a $1500 minidesk. The aesthetic is clean, modern, dramatic. I have also found cool, inexpensive toys and other knick knacks that make for different stocking stuffers or birthday presents. Sometimes I wish I had had the foresight to have registered here for my wedding, but that wouldn't have been practical and I am generally nothing if not practical......
