Frozen Fountain
The city’s best-known showcase of furniture and interior design. Prices are not cheap, but wares are offbeat and very memorable (designer pen-knives, kitchen gadgets).

How does Dutch design manage to be so chic and functional all at once? We’re at a loss, but this well-priced shop has a zillion bowls, cups, trivets and more to bring some modern (and useful) style into your home.

Moooi Gallery
Dutch design at its most over-the-top, from the life-sized black horse lamp to the ‘blow away vase’ (a whimsical twist on the classic Delft vase) and the ‘killing of the piggy bank’ ceramic pig (with a gold hammer).

De Emaillekeizer
Email sounds like something you want to send, but in Dutch it means ‘enamel’, so it’s something you’ll want to keep. This colourful store brims with it: metal tableware and more coated in interesting designs from China, Ghana, Poland etc.

Wonen 2000
Begun over a century ago, this home furnishings shop has been at the forefront of Dutch design ever since, boasting names such as Gispen, Edra and Artifoort, and some foreign designers as well. Its affiliates, De Kasstoor (across the street at 202–210) and Wonen 2000 Bed & Bad (next door at 215–217), apply the same design concept to kitchens and lighting, and bed linens and bath, respectively.
