The 5 most stylish design stores in Los Angeles
1) 45 Three Modern Vintage Home
This interior store in the Little Ethiopia neighborhood is chock-full of midcentury treasures, from furniture to lamps and affordable, abstract art. Owner Staci Cain has a great eye and combs through estate sales to stock her store, bringing elegant and fun design home.

2) A + R
After a decade in business, this shop adored by design junkies has evolved from a tiny storefront in Venice to this colorful new headquarters in downtown’s ROW. Founded by design enthusiasts Andy Griffith and Rose Apodaca (the A plus R), there’s wonderful gifts plus furniture, lighting, rugs and more.

3) MOCA Store
The fantastic gift shop that accompanies The Museum of Contemporary Art has artists’ books galore plus exhibition catalogues, and the like, but there are also artist editions of prints (Andy Warhol Flavor Paper on sale!) and something for every price point.

4) Modernica
Lovers of mid-century modern design classics will feel right at home in this showroom. For 25 years, this locally owned and operated company has been crafting Case Study furniture. In fact, they use the same machinery used to fabricate the original Eames chairs for their rainbow-hued fiberglass shell chairs.

5) OK
The modern homewares and gifts at this small boutique are both functional and beautiful – objects that would easily be at home in some of the nearby Neutra homes. There are Comme des Garçons wallets, a gorgeous selection of local jewelers, and whimsical kids toys.
