Design Research (store)
Design Research or D/R was an innovative retail store founded in 1953 by Ben Thompson in Cambridge, Massachusetts; in the 1970s, under subsequent ownership, it became a chain of a dozen stores across the United States; it went bankrupt in 1978. Thompson's goal was to provide "a place where people could buy everything they needed for contemporary living",〔Pilar Viladas, "One-Stop Living", ''New York Times'' September 29, 2010 ()〕 notably modern European furnishings and in particular Scandinavian design.
D/R has continued to have an outsized reputation: in 2000, a survey of influential design stores named D/R as number one, though it had been closed for 22 years.〔Rob Forbes, "Foreword: Who's Your Daddy?" ''in'' Jane Thompson and Alexandra Lange, ''Design Research: The Store That Brought Modern Living to American Homes'', 2010 ISBN 0-8118-6818-4, p. 7 (excerpt available )〕 It influenced later retailers like Crate & Barrel and Design Within Reach.〔
==Selection of products==
Design Research carried an eclectic selection of products, from furniture to clothing, from toys to pots and pans, at a wide range of prices, introducing the idea of a lifestyle store.〔Carole Nicksin, "The Legacy of Design Research: The impact of the long-defunct retailer is still being felt within the home furnishings industry", ''HFN The Weekly Newspaper for the Home Furnishing Network'', November 8, 2004 (full text )〕 It carried furnishings by such designers as Marcel Breuer, Hans Wegner, Alvar Aalto, and Joe Colombo.〔Rachel Travers, "Through a glass, brightly", ''Boston Globe'', October 29, 2009. ()〕
Design Research was the exclusive U.S. representative for the Finnish clothing and textiles of Marimekko from 1959 to 1976.〔Marianne Aav, ''Marimekko: Fabrics, Fashion, Architecture'', 2003 ISBN 0-300-10183-X, p. 305, 324 (excerpts at Google Books )〕 Jacqueline Kennedy was pictured on the cover of ''Sports Illustrated'' in 1960 in a Marimekko sundress purchased at D/R.〔''Sports Illustrated'', December 26, 1960; in Marianne Aav, ''Marimekko: Fabrics, Fashion, Architecture'', 2003, ISBN 030010183X, p. 162〕
