The next time you visit the windy city be sure to check out Post 27. This feature from Design Bureau is enough to get me south bound to check out their eclectic mix.
Some creative types see design as a solitary adventure. Not Angela Finney-Hoffman. As the brains behind eclectic furniture store Post 27, Finney-Hoffman stresses that owning a shop is as much about collaboration as it is about hawking unique home decor. “Ninety percent of [what’s inside] my store is made locally, whether it’s old or new,” says Finney-Hoffman. “And everything I source is within 90 miles of the city limits.”
In the spacious flea market-meets-gallery space housed inside a former lampshade factory on the West side of Chicago, Finney-Hoffman and her co-owner/husband Barkley curate an array of home finds scoured from local auctions, estate sales and flea markets, often refurbishing the pieces and giving them a modern update.
