Posted by Lori Pepe-Lunche on Friday, August 31, 2012, In : New Shops

I found a great new resource for Midcentury Modern furnishings in a fabulous up and coming spot!

The spot is called Temescal Alley.

The shop is called Lot 49 Urban Home Store.

Perry, the incredibly nice guy who owns and curates this little shop has only the best stuff at very reasonable prices.

He is a graphic designer by day (Monday through Friday) and a shop keeper on Thursday through Saturday.

Not only is his furniture and lighting fabulous, but he also has new pillows that he makes using ...

There is a great little shop that I happened to trip over in North Berkeley last week and I must tell you about it!

H Julien Designs is a wonderful small space filled with incredibly simple and beautiful floral arrangements, handblown glass vases, pottery, scarves, and a number of gifts that I would be happy to present to my very best of friends.

Shockingly, Howard Arendtson has owned this shop for 10 years and told me that people always come in and wonder if it's new...just like me!

Big Daddy's Antiques is the perfect name for this big daddy of a shop!

In addition to selling at the best flea markets in California, they have been in business for over 20 years selling out of their Los Angeles warehouse and opened their San Francisco warehouse about 1 year ago.

The owner travels throughout the U.S., Europe, and Asia sourcing large unique architectural elements and antiques to stock the shops.

You may be familiar with Nathan...he also has a home on Piedmont Avenue.

But just one week ago Nathan & Co. opened a second home on College Avenue right across from Market Hall.

The little shop is stocked to the gills with interesting big and little items.

The front section has lots of cooking supplies and cookbooks, while the back has some REALLY FABULOUS jewelry that I wish I had a picture for you to see...excellent pricing on the jewelry as well!

Here are some aluminum pedestals with glass ...
