A decade ago, home furnishings by signature designers were found only at retail's upper reaches. In the new design democracy, even the most high-minded designers are dabbling in the low ends of the market. Ten years after the architect Michael Graves marched into Target and began selling kitchen gadgets, big-box stores are perfectly respectable places for top-end designers. So you don't have to be rich to own an Eames chair or a Philippe Starck lamp; you just have to have good taste.
