Ikea may be Swedish for common sense but becoming a noodist is only
rational.
Founded in New Zealand, New
Objects of Desire (a.k.a. nood) is a well-known design shop that
stocks fun and quirky household products, furniture lines, ceramics,
gadgets and bags. With a new downtown location, nood is finally heading
east in Canada (a Deerfoot Meadows location is also coming soon).
Popular for its designer mid-century reproduction sofas and chairs
(pictured, the Ess chair, inspired by the 1968 Panton chair, $279), the
store is also a mecca for eclectic gifts like cubic
clocks ($59.95), doodle
mugs ($6.95) and retro
alarm clocks ($16.95), not to mention the fabulous selection of leather
bags.
