A Chic Home Store to Know About: Table Leg Home

July 12, 2016 by House of Funk 1 Comment

As a designer, one of the things I love most is shopping. During a recent team outing in downtown Montclair, I happened upon a cool and newly opened boutique cozily tucked into a quiet side street. Owner Zachary Tischbein’s new home furnishings boutique, Table Leg Home, exudes a contemporary vibe that’s fun, chic, and cool. I am a big fan of Tischbein’s well-curated and hand-picked selections, and I love the boutique’s layout. Metallic gold accents pepper the inventory, intermingling with matte fabric pieces and naturalistic kitchenware in a space that is refreshingly honest in its simplicity.

I sat down with Zachary to talk design inspiration, current must-haves, and how he found his way to Montclair.

What led you to open a home shop in Montclair?
I’ve worked as an accessories designer for fifteen years and wanted to do something more creative and less corporate. I was spending a lot of time in the Rhinebeck, NY area and was inspired by the local shops there. A good friend told me that Montclair needed this type of home shop because it’s a white space in the area! The rest is history.

How does your fashion background tie into your buying decisions for the shop?
I’ve always been creative. I was a painter when I was younger and have always been into color and fashion. If you’re a true designer at heart you can design anything.

Where do you find inspiration?
Everywhere! A picture in a magazine, an old photo, flea-market finds, passersby in NYC, my grandmother…the list is endless.

Tell us your current three must-haves from the TLH:
1 Thomas Paul Whale Caftan Beach Cover-Up
2 Whale cutting board from Sir Madam
3 John Darien dishes and trays

Which interior design trend are you obsessed with right now?
I’m really into the rustic farmhouse theme with hints of modern items mixed in. It’s a new take on antiques.

Favorite interior designer:
I love John Derian’s aesthetic.

Favorite color:
Gray and all shades of white.

Motto to live by:
Manners cost nothing.
