Whoa! Talk about a collaboration that could yield some amazing results. The crews from Design Within Reach and Supermarket have teamed up to bring us ModernMart IV. They’ve collected the best of the best from the Supermarket designers and will be displaying their wares for a one-night-only sale in the DWR Tribeca studio.

The ModernMart will feature work from Bailey Doesn’t Bark (who you might remember from here), Kim Westad, and Moop - among others. They’re also offering up a “super goodie tote” to the first 100 people in the door as well as free champaigne. And you can sign up before the day of the event for a drawing to be help on the 11th (no word on what the prizes are).

Of course, if you’re in need of some modernist furnishings, check out the DWR Clearance Sale happening online or venture over to the DWR Annex in Secaucus which is supposed to have some killer deals.

Despite the argument that Design Within Reach has lost touch with the “Within Reach” part of their moniker, it’s tough to challenge their ability to make some really iconic pieces readily available (to those who can afford the prices). And to cement their standing, the crew over at DWR recently started an item-per-day sale of some very limited edition piece.

According to a post over on Apartment Therapy, Chris and Kari (the brains behind the DWR Tools For Living idea) recently returned from a trip around the world where they spent their days gathering up as many rare, vintage, and one-off pieces as they could find. Those pieces are now being sold on DWR’s site in a limited edition run of awesomeness. Some pieces are available for purchase on the DWR site, while others are being auctioned off - like an original Eames designed leg splint, or #1 of 500 of the new Gehry Superlight chair. Of course, I’ve got a pretty serious hankering for the Venti Fan they’re showing off (ironically, one of the more “reasonably” priced items at a modest $600).

They’re revealing a piece per day for about another two weeks. You can keep track of the items on their Limited Edition Page, or sign up for their mailing list to get the info via email.
