Schieffer's Out of Gov Race
Home furnishings store west elm, one of the subsidiaries of the Williams-Sonoma Inc. empire, is opening its first Austin location at 5th and Lamar this Wednesday.
The 13,000-square-foot space, catty corner from Whole Foods and across from Pure Austin, is decked out with "loft settings" and, similar to any company striving for an eco-friendly image, was built out using green building techniques—low-energy lighting, low-VOC paints and reclaimed hardwood floors can be found throughout the store.
For its opening weekend, the Austin location will offer 10% off all purchases (valid from 9/30/09 - 10/4/09).
