Can you tell me where I can find the three-shaded pendant in Widney Moore’s dining room that’s on the cover of the Mar.-Apr. 2008 issue (“Woven Into The Pearl”)? It’s just what I’ve been looking for.

—Barbara Dans, Portland

 

Editor Sheila De La Rosa replies: “Thanks so much for asking about that fixture! On shoot day, Widney told me that the Ingo Maurer fixture called Flotation came with the penthouse she and Glenn bought from Portland interior designer Shannon Brown.
“Brown reports that she purchased her fixture from Diva Furniture’s Los Angeles showroom (8801 Beverly Blvd.; 310-278-3191), but that the shades only came in white, so she had them custom waxed to turn them into the lovely creamy color they now are, which casts a warm glow into the space. There’s also a Diva Furniture showroom in Seattle (1300 Western Ave., 206-287-9992 or go to
divafurniture.com). Click on the lighting page and you can see the three-shaded pendant in its original egg-white color! Brown can be reached at 503-226-9100.”

Shop Lower Burnside

Seedy motels and a nonexistent street scene used to define this inner east gateway to downtown Portland, but the transformation of a former Travel Lodge into the hipster Jupiter Hotel (the site of the successful art fair The Affair The Jupiter in Sept.) has helped turn this district into a worthy shopping outpost.

Portland Green

We’ve scoured Portland to find the latest shops that’ve gone green! Everything you need­—or desire—can be found with sustainability in mind. The eco-conscious have hung out their shingles all over town in converted warehouses, turn-of-the-century homes, and even old Maytag repair shops. From the reclaimed to the local, from the handmade to the sustainable, here are some of our new favorite places!
