Designer and event planner David Stark takes over Haus Interiors in Nolita with a limited-edition line of products.
We stopped by the grand opening a couple of days ago to chat with Stark and interior designer Nina Freudenberger of Haus Interior and to learn about their collaboration (they met at a RISD alumni event not long ago and developed an instant rapport). They decided to collaborate on Wood Shop: an installation of products inspired by Stark's own crafts shop in Brooklyn, featuring hand-turned vases, decorative objects, table linens, whimsical Valentines, printed pillows, and clocks. The offerings are available at Haus Interiors on Elizabeth Street (as well as online) through the month of February. "Retail is like a party," said Stark. If it's good, as in this case, you don't want to miss it.
