Scottie, do us a favor.<br />
Beam us up to the land of late-night<br />
enterprises (a.k.a. Meatpacking). For in<br />
our mission to explore strange new<br />
worlds and civilizations in retail, we<br />
boldly go … wherever we can shop.<br />
Which brings us to Space107, a furniture revamp operation<br />
spearheaded by Captain Amir Dinkha (we added that captain part),<br />
an Iraqi refugee who found his American dream in the form of<br />
midcentury modern furniture.<br />
His showroom offers standout pieces like a chocolate suede sofa, a<br />
chrome floor lamp, and a round mohair chaise. But venture to his<br />
sublevel graveyard and note the dilapidated Eames, Edward<br />
Wormley, and Karl Springer just waiting to be resuscitated. In his<br />
“laboratory,” Dinkha works like a mad scientist restoring each model<br />
to its original glory.<br />
Prices range from a few Benjamins to upward of $20,000 (because<br />
everyone deserves luxury). And his creations can be seen in Italian<br />
Vogue and the Olsen twins’ house (a.k.a. the final frontier).<br />
See? Stars will trek to Space107.<br />
Even the next generation.<br />
Space107, 107 Horatio Street, between Washington Street and the<br />
West Side Highway (212-206-7599 or space107.com).<br />
