We've noticed San Diego store Boomerang For Modern mentioned a few times by our readers as a favourite shopping destination, so we thought we'd get in touch with owner, David Skelley, for a store tour from afar (we'll be sure to drop by next time we're down in SD). He was kind enough to send us some snapshots of his swank 23 year old business...

Has anyone thought about doing an actual social center with those types of furnishings? Sort of a lounge and light fare thing?

Serving many beverages, both alcoholic and not, and maybe some freshly made daily breads? Something easy that doesn't require a huge kitchen or vast menu.

A place that serves good coffee but isn't a Starbucks. You know what I mean? Or someplace that offers local winery offerings that isn't the winery. #9 on Jun 29, 2008

I mentioned Boomerang for Modern as a favorite in our own house tour today. It's an amazing shop and the owner, David, has a real knack for finding incredible pieces. There's always something new and interesting in there whenever we stop by. David is also a friend of ours and is such a nice guy, it's fun to stop by and hang out or say hi, even when not in the market for anything. David's shop is a bit of an unofficial headquarters and social center for a lot of the modernists in San Diego. DarrenB on Jun 28, 2008
