Their silk-screened shirts are truly unique, with a graphic design sensibility that features the work of local designers. You won't find t-shirts like this anywhere else, so if you're already at Sol, Madrid's central square, it's worth the short walk over to Typographia to buy some new shirts for yourself, and these are the kind of t-shirts that would also make great gifts. One star off for the off-putting staff who don't do justice to the design work on display here - and no refunds, so be sure to try on your selections before leaving the shop as the sizes run a bit small. They do accept exchanges but, again, a bit begrudgingly. Note to staff: Be proud of what you're selling!

Casa de Diego is a very small shop on the Puerta Del Sol. I had heard it was overpriced, but…read morechecked it out anyways. I really wanted to find an authentic gift for my sister from Spain. I thought a hand painted fan would be something she'd like. And this was the place to go. I was pleasantly surprised by the price range. I bought two fans on the mid-high end, but I really like them. I skipped the specially designed stands because at 100€ a piece, I can't afford the stand to cost more than the fan. The service in the store was good. They were pleasant, but a little abrupt. It could have been the language barrier. So I won't really fault them. Other items including Paraguas (umbrellas) can be found here. Definitely worth at least a look in the Windows if only to admire the handiwork.
