Home & Garden Shopping

Jaipur Living, an Atlanta-based textiles and rug company, is collaborating with local designer Michael Habachy on a rug collection inspired by the designer’s Egyptian heritage. The collection, named Gamil, which means ‘beautiful’ in Arabic, features four rugs in a neutral palette with geometric designs and organic textures.

When you think of e-commerce, Amish-made furniture is likely not the first thing that comes to mind. In fact, you probably picture online furnishings as inexpensive knock-offs made of particle board rather than envisioning the handmade, solid-wood craftsmanship that the Pennsylvania artisans are famous for. However, DutchCrafters, which recently opened a new showroom in Alpharetta, was indeed launched online back in 2003, and the company has grown into one of the nation’s largest sources for Amish-made furniture.

Jaipur Living’s new showroom in Acworth is like an art gallery for rugs.

Curved lines, interesting textures, and playful scale—chances are, you’ve seen furniture designer Francie Lowman’s work at stores like Anthropologie, Interior Define, or Urban Outfitters.

It all started with a sofa—a ships-straight-to-your-door, easy-to-assemble, modular sofa to be exact. When Stephen Kuhl and Kabeer Chopra, co-founders of direct-to-consumer furniture brand Burrow, realized that buying furniture had its pain points, they set out to create an easier way to shop for and build furniture. In 2017, they began distributing their first sofa that came in easily moveable boxes and could be assembled without any tools. Since then, they’ve created timeless, no-fuss pieces of furniture for nearly every room in a house from bedrooms to offices.

The Kai Garden doesn’t have a retail storefront, an ecommerce site, or even regular business hours. Yet the grounds of Eric Mack’s East Lake residence are home to a sprawling one-man nursery and pop-up shop with one of the city’s best selections of rare and unusual plants.

Located in Ansley Mall, the shop reflects owner Kwynn Everest’s obsession with hospitality. A Four Seasons marketing and sales veteran who lives nearby and entertains often, she felt the neighborhood was missing a high-quality gifting destination. “There was a need for something funky, different, and unique here in Midtown,” she says.
