A+R is British ex-pat Andy Griffith, a former film editor and self-avowed design junkie, and Rose Apodaca, a pop culture and style journalist. They love talking about the designers they find locally and from afar, because it only goes to show that this brilliant and bold community is not so much distinguished by geographic or cultural boundaries but bound by the pursuit of aesthetics and innovative ideas.
From clocks to carafes, slippers to stuffed toys, and baubles to bright lights, the constant is design that charms, functions and inspires. They obsessively seek out the newest products, aiming to offer them first. They cherry pick the best from the best manufacturers. They don't settle for product simply available through domestic distributors: Challenges be damned, they import from anywhere in the world and never sell anything they haven't personally handled. They love everything they sell. |
