With its all-white interior of rubber floors and Plexiglas walls, this three-year-old store in Philly's Old City hopes to become a "contemporary cultural center for the entire community." Co-owners (and step-sisters) Eugenie Perret and Juliette Brody play host to a full flight of book signings, exhibitions, lectures and parties. Branching out from just the usual Italian design suspects, the store carries interesting others, including Owen Logic, Lolah and Bam Bam. Wathc for its new 5,000-square-foot-space, expected to open this fall.
