One of my favorite shops, The Apartment recently commissioned the collective Illegal Art to cover their windows on Crosby Street in SOHO with hundreds of Post-its, in honor of inventor Arthur Fry, and to engage and motivate the people of New York.

I especially enjoy The Apartment because it is much more than a boutique / design consultancy. Creative director Stefan Boublil's philosophy on the art of living well comes through in everything The Apartment presents to the world.
