Blu Dot, the playful Minneapolis-based home design studio with the goal of creating well-designed products that are useful, affordable and desirable opened it first L.A. store last week.
‘We like it here,’ co-founder Maurice Blanks told our sibling blog L.A. at Home. Fellow co-founder John Christakos added, ‘There is a laid-back quality to our furniture that suits Los Angeles.’ The new 3,500-square-foot Blu Dot showroom is on Melrose Avenue west of Fairfax:
The 3,500-square-foot showroom on Melrose Avenue west of Fairfax Avenue, pictured here, is a handsome, light-filled space for the 150-piece collection, including the retro One Night Stand sleeper sofa in the window ($1,799) and the Eamesian bent plywood Buttercup chair ($799). Also of note: the bright red Desk 51, featuring an ingenious keyboard tray ($699), and the guacamole-hued Nook bed frame and upholstered headboard...
There are also some handsome bookshelves. Above, the Chicago Lowboy -- 5 feet long and 3 feet high -- retails for $599.
