Apartment Zero is our favorite design store in DC! great customer service and wonderful selection. plus cool embassy and museum events all year long

for those who love bottles, check out the bottle lamps at apartment zero from droog design, the netherlands...all recycled milk bottles. (it's on my wish list for one day!)

wow! i had the exact opposite experience with them..my visits have always been so positive. my husband and i recently purchased a sofa, chair and lamp from them and had no problems whatsoever getting free samples, price quotes and tear sheets to take with us...they followed up with us the same day and remembered our names when we came in a week later to purchase..

I must say that I am surprised to hear about their customer service, after visiting almost every design store in DC...Apartment Zero was the only one who greeted us with a smile and always said hello..so many other design stores are so snooty, they barely even look at you when you enter.

I didn't know much aobut them so i visited their website to find out they sponsor up-and-coming designers with exhibits of their work, all free and open to the public...so we went to one of their events at the Finnish Embassy. what a blast! we got to meet the ambassdaor and his wife and see a stunning exhibit at the same time.

I would most definitely recommend apartment zero, as the best customer service around...they win my vote.

and about Muleh...tiny shop! i thought they were a design store? they only carry one line: Knoll..was thinking they had more selection
