I am looking to furnish an apartment in Medellin.
Think:
Overstuffed comfy couches
Pillow top mattress with box spring
I'm not much into the "heavy" clunky Spanish influenced furniture (no offense).
More American style.
Any places come to mind?

Mononoke28 says on Aug 1, 2008, 15:04: I don't like most styles in Colombia, they're way too modern and contemporary for my taste. I'm more into the Pottery Barn look and was never able to find a furniture store to suit my taste when I was there. I'm now ripping out the pages off of my Pottery Barn catalogue so I can bring it to Medellín next time I go and have everything custome made. Diana 0 funny, 0 helpful. |
