Never know what the latest design trends are? Or where to shop in
Dallas for hip furniture and home décor? Me neither. My solution is
heading to Design*Sponge.
The website features city guides (not limited to the United States), before and after pictures, do it yourself guides and more. It's also very picture oriented, which enables you to see the design trends and then pick them out somewhere else on your own, or knock off the design and make it your own.
The best feature of the site (in my opinion) is the city design guides. With only 29 city guides so far, Dallas has made its way onto the list, with shops of all kinds featured under categories from furniture to gadgets to fashion.
For example, if you're looking for something contemporary, the guide points to shops like Ligne Roset on McKinney, where "irreverent looks" can be found. To go green, the site includes Lakewood Shopping Center favorite Green Living to find recycled products and home accessories. And the handmade category suggests taking a trip to Make in Oak Cliff, where local designers and artists hand craft items and offer DIY classes.
That's just a taste of what the Design Sponge site has to offer. Explore for yourself.
