The Design District
Entermodal Sample Sale
Today, Tuesday November, 11 from 4-8 PM is the annual Entermodal Sample Sale and Open House at the Pearl District studio (239 NW 13th, Suite 211) just across from W+K and Bluehour.
We wrote about Entermodal in the May/June 08 issue of Portland Spaces. The Portland-based, line of sleek, sustainable, modern leathergoods is carried by luxury goods retailers in Tokyo, NY, and LA. But in Portland, besides a studio visit, Entermodal has been hard to find. Now pieces are available at Olio United (1023 SE Water). But you should take advantage of this opportunity to see the studio and get your hands on the full line live and in person.
Online, read more about Entermodal here. The story—of a modern designer of high-end mountaineering goods who engages in a quest to master leatherworking techniques that predate the Industrial Revolution—is as good as the bags. Go see.
