Found Me


Serious eye candy from my new favorite shop in Houston, Found. Lots of industrial and French influences mixed to perfection. Oh, and it smells good in there, too.

dude, please tell me everything in here is not $5,000 because if so I might have a problem!!

Cote de Texas said...

oh Paige, it's more that 5k - it's really, really expensive!!!!

You beat me to this. Last time I was there, I didn't have my camera. You know my daughter's tutor is in that building. to the right, in the remodeled apartments. a bunch of interior designers have space upstairs. I just love that whole complex.

Jo: Come! I'll take you around and give you the grand tour. It's so different than all the preconceived notions, I promise. We aren't all hicks and most women do NOT have pagent hair.

I'm glad you finally found, "Found". I told you it was great!

Alyson: Isn't that amazing! My personal favorite is the big square cabinet in the second to last picture. It's an old explosion proof cabinet or something cool like that. It has the most amazing handles and spring loaded doors - I want it to be my bar!

Paige: No, you can buy a candle for $50. I don't think the prices are that absurd. Yes, lots of pricey pretties, but overall cheaper than Installations. Main difference between the two shops: Found isn't strictly industrial like Installations...their French pieces and junky items are what makes it not as pricey. You need to visit. Weekly.

Too cool! I'm going to put it on my list to visit in May!

Love every item! The French chairs...the urns...the wooden balls...the cage tables, and esp. those great industrial stools. Does it cost fortunes?

In(side) the Loop said...

Honestly, it isn't fortunes. I think they are fairly priced for industrial pieces....they're expensive no matter where you go! I can promise they are cheaper than NY industrial/antique shops...and I bet they'd ship!
