I always want to love Velocity but it seems that whenever I visit the store they are often unwelcoming, especially for a boutique shop.
I live right around the street from them and have never had them be anything BUT welcoming. Maybe you caught them on a bad day? What happened?

Maybe this is the wrong place to ask...but has anyone had any problems (recently) with the speed of d*sponge? The pictures seem to be loading significantly slower...and I don't think it's my computer!

i'm with you- it's been taking me a while to load my own site. i think it's something to do with the new blogger system. i'm noticed that when i load other blogger sites it takes a while to bring up the photos- and sometimes they don't even come up. usually i just hit reload and it works. so sorry for this- until they get the bugs out of the system there will probably be little glitches like this.
thanks for your patience though ;)

I have purchased several things from Velocity and they have allways been super nice and very welcoming.
Perfect lighting!
It is definitely something you don't think about except when it is great and it makes a room. I have high hopes for these lovely pieces.
Thanks Grace...the d* is worth it!

i actually have some similar lights by niche modern with exposed bulbs and i use those sort of old-school filament bulbs. they're not harsh to look at at all- they're actually quite soft and lovely. here are some links:

Jenifer- We haven't had a chance yet, but will be adding those bulbs to the site this week. I agree about that "old school" look being key. Grace listed some other great places to get them. Thanks! John from Velocity
I love these fixtures, and the bulbs too, but always worry that that style bulb won't be bright enough. Would one be bright enough to light, say, a kitchen?
