As a Seattle interior designer ever on the lookout for inspiration, it’s pleasing to see such activity less than a mile from my neighborhood, Capitol Hill. (more on my hood soon). When my daughter visited last month we roamed around Madison Valley.  Some highlights of great resources for eye candy and sustenance. When you need ideas and inspirations read my newsletter.

These design and home furnishings shops and restaurants now infuse once quiet Madison Valley with an energy all its own. Enjoy a stretch of shops filled with gifts, home accents, and garden gear, near Washington Park Arboretum.  Contact me for more design assistance today!

GETTING THERE

Madison Valley is east of Seattle’s downtown and the Capitol Hill neighborhood. The business district runs along E. Madison St. from about 23rd Ave. E. to 32nd Ave. E.
