Bruges Home This two-story design studio carries everything from coffee-table books to club chairs. All the price tags have lengthy descriptions because, according to owner Ed Gray, "people like things with a story."

Minima Eugenie Perret fills her sleek, white-lacquer furniture studio and gallery with a veritable who's who of modern designers: Piero Lissoni, Marc Newson, Eero Saarinen, Philippe Starck. Art exhibitions rotate, and works are often commissioned for the showroom. T+L Tip Most of the staff has a background in interior design. Bring pictures of your room, and they'll do a consultation. 118 N. Third St.; 215/922-2002.
Reform Vintage Modern This is a secret source for other Midcentury furniture dealers, who come for original finds by design legends like Warren Platner and Tommi Parzinger and then resell them at a premium. Expect coveted items at affordable prices. T+L Tip Ask owner Arthur Meckler to take you to his warehouse across town. That's where he keeps bigger pieces—chairs, sofas, tables—that he'll sell at a discount. 112 N. Third St.; 215/922-6908.
