Muleh

Muléh, which means "to come home" in Javanese, was originally a South Asian furniture store, and now also sells women's clothing. The furniture is eco-friendly and has sleek and modern lines and designs. The furniture is minimalistic but looks really cool, with focus on the textures of the furnishing. Because of the eco-friendliness, it feels very earthy - I get a feeling of peace looking at the furniture. The clothing is also cool and unique. The South Asian theme doesn't carry into the clothes. These are simply trendy, modern clothes that you wouldn't find in a department store. Muléh is right off U street and next to some other really cool stores including Home Rule and Go Mamma Go. This area is a cool place to look around and decorate your space - it's all so funky and fun. more

I've never been able to afford anything there, but if you're in the 14th Street neighborhood and want to check out some interesting furniture, make sure you stop in to Muleh. They've got some really funky furniture, as well as some interesting clothing, but unfortunately most of it is out of the common man's price range. Don't let that stop you from going in and checking it out though. more
