GQ Magazine: It's a little like Bed Bath & Beyond... without all the generic college room junk. Go here for sleek Knoll loungers, artful glassware from Alessi, and Missoni print bedding that she'll really dig. Plus, they cover the shipping for orders over $100. Lucky Magazine: The bricks-and-mortar outpost of the much-hyped modern home goods website is just as expansive & mash; and worth a drive-by, if you're interested in snapping up a Moroso floor sample for a song. Misti Y, the Community Manager for Yelp Las Vegas.You don't get much of this in Vegas, and for that reason, this is a 4-star experience. It is a little mecca of clean, modern design with everything from books to toys to trendy kitchen gadgets to sofas. We always end up swinging by here around the holidays to search for the perfect little something for someone. Every time I visit, I see about 21 things that I would like to bring home with me-- "oooooohhh placemats, aaaaaaah vase.... eeeeek what a cute stuffed animal!" That's how it happens, but the place isn't cheap, so I don't bring home all of the things I covet. The store is spacious and well lit, and even if you don't purchase anything, it is nice to browse around. Notcot.com First stop into vegas… UNICA HOME! The showroom/shop! Stepping into their new 3 month old 12,000 sq ft space felt like going to design heaven ~ so many things i’ve written about… beautifully laid out for hours of oooooohs and ahhhhhhs followed by debating and purchasing… i’m currently debating the Artimide Melampo Lamps! Unica Home in person manages to strike a delicate balance between being incredibly accessible and touchable, while still feeling as if you’re in the presence of a museum like space versus a store, as silly as it sounds, you can feel the care that is taken in showcasing the products with the utmost respect. When you meet founders Bonnie & Hugh, you’ll quickly grasp their passion for each and every object in the store, and their excitement over what is yet to come is infectious! And really, 12,000 sq feet is HUGE! They have one of their two warehouses in the back of the store, so don’t hesitate to ask if there’s something you’ve been eying online that you’re curious to see in person… The Detroit natives have been running Unica Home for 10 years, and have surprising backgrounds ranging from molecular biology, advertising/marketing, and antique sales as well as serving on the board of the legendary Neon Museum… and Hugh pointed us towards some off the Strip spots to check out… you’ll see more about Frankie’s Tiki Room when i get the next post ready… but first ~ click on to the next page to see a tour of the incredible Unica Home, there are over 30 pictures!!! There was just far too much to show you! This is definitely a MUST SEE when you’re in vegas!
