	Nice idea, Heath!	1 Relevance	18 years ago	sharplinesoldtimes	General discussion
	Nice idea, Heath! I love the often industrial shapes of Arne Bang's works. I saw this house recently on the net, Casa Hermeroscopium outside Madrid. I would love to live there. I have a thing for factory-like houses in dirty concrete.
	I'm game	1 Relevance	18 years ago	Riki	General discussion
	I'm game I will find the tackiest thing I have slated for sale next week on ebay and cite a possible attribution to G. S. di Frutta. If the fifties are now the "Eames Era" and the seventies are the "Panton Era", I think we can claim the eighties as the "di Frutta Era" with relatively little effort. O, such delicious wickedness.

	. Hi Carlos I really feel for you, I was on the brink of ordering from them myself and the website was in my bookmark folder - however for whatever reason I went elsewhere - and thank the lord that I did. The only thing I could really suggest is contacting trading standards, and also maybe taking a trip to the address on the website with a couple of toughs - Sorry I can't be of more help. Their really should be something done about this scumbag - but what?
	.	1 Relevance	19 years ago	HP	General discussion
	. I think that house is pure propaganda, the designers are jumping on the bandwagon without any depth of understanding of the ethics they think they are adhering to, smoke and mirrors! A house for Al Gore converts who don't realise theyr'e asking for their cake and the sweet thing too. What does Olive think?
	Bodum	1 Relevance	19 years ago	ID Guy	General discussion
	Bodum French Press, first thing every morning. Local coffee roaster- Alterra, great company. We have lots of nice cups, even a matching bodum glass set but they're too small. I use a big bucket style cup from me mother.
	well ...	1 Relevance	19 years ago	whitespike	General discussion
	well ... This is only my opinion, but from what I have experienced it is possible. It has only happened to me when it was my server that was messed up. So, I guess it is possible. The other thing, is I have thought I have not gotten an email when in fact it landed in my "junk" for one reason or another. Truth be told, 90% of the time I have gotten an email, but not in every instance. I think with technology anything is possible. Unfortunately, it makes it easy to lie.
	I love that sofa	1 Relevance	20 years ago	DavidDC	General discussion
	I love that sofa And the nice thing is that it probably won't cost very much at all to reupholster it (800 max), especially if you have already purchase the fabric. Someone on the lottaliving.com board posted a message about having an auto upholsterer doing his daybed on the cheap. Personally, I like whitespike's idea of a hopsack fabric. But to each his own.

	. The closer you stick to the spirit of the PLACE the better, after all that is why you bought it?Too much exposed dark distressed brick can give you the blues.Easy on sandblasting it can ruin softer type brick.One thing a loft is:OPEN...and WHITE....
	Wouldn't go off painter	1 Relevance	22 years ago	NULL NULL	General discussion
	Wouldn't go off painter Call up Knoll and ask them? Worst thing that the can say is, "it's a family secret".. Tell them the purpose.. the might be more willing to tell you... a painter will more than likely not be able to match it exactly.. an autobody specialist may have a better chance of identifying it.. There are hundreds if not thousands of shades of white.. unless you do not care that much about being true to it..
	The legs are 7 inches high.	1 Relevance	10 years ago	Disco Al	General discussion
	The legs are 7 inches high. I have the sofa and two armchairs. A couple of my legs need replacing. Unfortunately, Nelson did the legs in aluminum as that was the new thing. If he did them in steel, replacements would be almost non-existent. Hume is expensive, and, you have to order at least four, not just one or two. Al Sanchez
	Update on the Nelson X-Leg table	1 Relevance	14 years ago	Poach	General discussion
	Update on the Nelson X-Leg table This is the follow-up to another "last thing" post. In #14, I found this table, but only the legs were salvageable. I had a local shop (that, incidentally, does a lot of custom work for HM) laminate me a new top in walnut. Here's the finished table.
	sdr	1 Relevance	19 years ago	LRF	General discussion
	sdr Of all the things about mid century and i like it all the only thing that makes me go nuts is wood that is on the angle I think Horizonal is a ok or Veritical but i have no idea why some had to go at a right angle or out west they got creative and went angle up on both sides to a point , they ruined so many great houses around here
	Resizing recipe	1 Relevance	19 years ago	ite (BE)	General discussion
	Resizing recipe Mmmh. As far as I can figure out, there are two options regarding photo resizing: you either resize (reduce) the dimensions of the original photo and consequently display the reduced photo; or you keep the size of the original photo, but determine the dimensions of display on screen by means of html coding. Just before, I tried the last option. Yes, the distorted thing. 1) For this last option, you change with the basic html pic posting code (in the body of text, NEVER EVER in the url box): IMG SRC="http://www.dwr.com/images/features/f_0086.jpg" and surround this whole line with the pointy brackets And extend it by adding restrictions for width and height, the code is below: IMG SRC="url" WIDTH="100" HEIGHT="50" border="0" and surround this whole line with the pointy brackets Now I just have to figure out how to resize it, keeping ratio width/ height constant (tips welcome ;o) 2) For the first option: download the original photo on your pc. Open photo in an appropriate software package (e.g. Microsoft Photo Editor should do fine), and physically rescale it proportionally. Save the pic with new proportions. Upload the thing from your pc into flicr, photobucket, etc. Post photobucket link (see code above). Et voila !
	Great mid century design from Israel?	1 Relevance	16 years ago	scoutshouse	General discussion
	Really like this thing, but does anyone have any idea what the background might be on something like this? Design looks like it may be older than 1950s. I really never hear or read about older design from Israel.
	I'd put my money on Alf...	1 Relevance	13 years ago	jesgord	General discussion
	I'd put my money on Alf... I'd put my money on Alf Svennson (He seemed to have a thing for flamboyant arms)....but it could also be Folke Ohlsson or Sylve Stenquist (although I think Stenquist is the least likely)
