Safe Haven

Haven, a well edited new home décor store in Dallas's Victory Park is just what the name implies. An environment that feel as though it were last bastion of good taste. The shop boasts such a well curated assortment of goods you feel you can't go wrong with anything you choose to take home.

Each and every corner is filled with wonderful and unique items chosen to inspire aesthetes like ourselves. Judging purely by their fabulously Italian last names, I suspect owners Jon Tutolo and John Bassignani could help me as much with my interiors as they could my language skills.

Lately the duo has been receiving accolades from the likes of Lucky, Metropolitan Home and even local publications for their skilled eye and their prized collection "rustic modern" merchandise. The home accessories found at Haven have been touted by D Magazine as the Best Home Furnishings for the Hip. That's quite the nod. But I suspect the collection of Hotel Costes candles, Oyuna cashmere throws and other luxe items in the high-end boutique might have something to do with the prized title. 

Looking for a little serenity today? Head on over for your dose iof interior therapy. You're sure to find it at Haven. And, if you discover that Jon and John can help me with my Italian, do let me know. Ciao a tutti!
