I've long been a fan of Jonathan Adler; his cheeky and whimsical housewares and fabric designs are, well, cheeky and whimsical. I was happy to read that he will be opening a retail location in Georgetown this May. It will be right in the heart of the shopping district, taking the place of the former GAP Kids, so this should be good news for retailers and consumers alike. Washingtonian recently spoke with Adler about the new store, and Adler had this to say about DC:
Washington is groovy. I've always loved Georgetown--the architecture, the vibe, all the glamorous politicos, students, and creative types. I've been looking for the perfect spot in Georgetown for years, and I finally found it.
Looking forward to welcoming you to 'hood, Jonathan.

I love Jonathan Adler! I actually did my wedding registry through his store and I absolutely love each gift I received.
ReplyDeleteAdded bonus, he is from the part of NJ I am from and went to my rival high school!
Definitely a welcome addition to DC. Can't wait to hear him speak at the Corcoran at the end of the month.
