	nice place Norm!	1 Relevance	13 years ago	Eameshead	General discussion
	nice place Norm! And about that "crap art" collection.... no sweat! Who needs art when you have THOSE windows-- and all that is seen through them? (Art is a very different thing than a nice view of course, but it's hard to imagine a mere "art object" being anywhere near as engaging and long-lasting as that changing view- every day and evening) Put another way, your house IS the art! Being inside the well-proportioned cube may be all you need. Besides cool furniture.
	Thanks ScanDesign	1 Relevance	14 years ago	TheMidCenturyBeehive	General discussion
	Thanks ScanDesign I'd noticed the same thing, and much of the Danish furniture we see here in Utah is the common "export" stuff. A lot of lounge chairs (Selig, Dux) that break down, and tables as well. Of course, for dining tables, even those of domestic origin have similar legs. I believe the fact that it says "Denmark" and not "Danmark" is another indication that it was intended for export.
	Please provide actual examples	1 Relevance	15 years ago	fastfwd	General discussion
	Please provide actual examples of the "many cases" of significantly lower-priced knockoffs that are identical in all ways (except the license) to authentic Knoll, Herman Miller, or Fritz Hansen products. Also, please provide a partial list of the knockoffs that you've found to be of better quality than the real thing.

	. There is a sliding clip sort of thing that was common for that method of upholstery, I've got it on my sofa but used differently, there was a Hans Olsen chair on here a while ago (the fried egg, maybe it was a dining chair) that if you pulled up sharply on the upholstered inner ply it would come off, hope that helps. Another thought, perhaps the upholstery is over an entire other assembly and it might just be screwed in from underneath.
	Stay safe	1 Relevance	16 years ago	Olive	General discussion
	Stay safe Heath, I've a friend from Ungarie now living in Brisbane and she's kept her Facebook connections spellbound as she's been telling the tales. You are so right, civilization is a fragile thing and Mother Nature is an awesome b*tch! I hope humanity figures out that we need to take better care of the earth soon! Stay safe and be careful!
	Barry, I know you must	1 Relevance	18 years ago	Big Television Man	General discussion
	Barry, I know you must be joking 🙂 With 6 separate threads, and somewhere between 600 and 800 posts and thousands of "reads" everything that can be said has been said. They've been great posts and great photos. We're still waiting for you and Lloyd to bring out your book on the subject, you don't want to give the whole thing away on the forum, do you? It's like going to the movies, you wouldn't go see the same movie every single day for years? :-0 (And yes, I am trying to be friendly and gentle here)

	It may be too late for me, but others may benefit from your recommendation-- I read about the Zody online, it received good reviews-- but, like the Grahl Duo, it wasn't available to try out in any of the stores I shopped. The Haworth Zody looks like the Knoll Life, only on steroids. One thing I particularly liked about the Knoll chair is the flat "spokes" on the base. You can put your feet on them, if you choose.

	Haven't read the whole... Haven't read the whole post...I will, when I get a cup-o-tea brewed. For now, pt. 1 suggest a fantastic idea! I breifly mentioned this before, but strictly as a designer-pedia type thing (ala wikipedia style). There are lots of free range Irish monk on the loose (re: DA readers) who can contribute.
	Sorry if I got a big rough	1 Relevance	19 years ago	barrympls	General discussion
	Sorry if I got a big rough Sorry if I went a bit off the deep end, but i have an issue when I provide a reasonable suggestion and it's dismissed. It would've been nicer to say 'Gosh, thanks for the tip, but I use this instead.' I didn't get that....instead the poster went on about how dangerous lighter fluid is and it was as if he didn't believe me. I felt like i was being 'diss'ed'! Anyhow, I will continue to post a suggestion, if I have one, or an opinion, if it's an open discussion. If someone does the same thing, I will try not to take it personally. OKeh?
	thanks hey there	1 Relevance	19 years ago	LRF	General discussion
	thanks hey there thanks for the post. I have several of the Exposition chairs in my office and i have said from day one they are great.... I have a set of 70 knoll barcelonas in my home for years and it is hard to tell the difference. other than one is new and the other 35 years old, One thing about Alpaville they do make good stuff they do put lots of thought in to there reproductions not like a lot of other Chinese crap. I have bought from them for our offices and i think their stuff is just fine for what it is,
	Or...	1 Relevance	20 years ago	vivienne	General discussion
	Or... maybe one side could have a sort of ejector/ flipper thing so the "owner" or "person who owns the house that the flippee has visited" can be easily got rid off next morning, having positioned the flipping side near an accomodating window overlooking the crocodile pool of course. I have never slept/not slept! in a round bed, but would of course give it a whirl.
	Ok..	1 Relevance	20 years ago	vivienne	General discussion
	Ok.. Sorry Gerrit,i just didnt think of the language thing, my fault. I think i know what you mean now,percieved stereotypes and all that. To get back to Jennifers question though, i think it comes down to whether people think they are good enough to buy or not, free choice,you can lead an old lush to a bottle of vodka but you cant make her drink (she will though). Good luck Jennifer and make a million honey!.
	To me I'm hoping!	1 Relevance	20 years ago	Olive	General discussion
	To me I'm hoping! Interesting to see a trend that DA-ers lean towards cocktails. And Mark, you are so right about Champagne. Not thing says 'Party' like Champagne. My hubby and I are big fans, we've been trying different ones for years. I have save the little metal cap that fits over the corks and glued them onto magnets. We have, like, 46 or 47 of them lined up on the fridge, no two alike. Makes for an interesting conversation starter!
	RE: 50s Mid century stool ID	1 Relevance	6 years ago	mvc	Identification
	@Albertini Don't despair, it is not always important to know the designer or producer. The important thing is that you like the object. So you can give free rein to your imagination! 😎 One day you might stumble upon the solution by chance without even thinking about it. And then the surprise is all the greater.
	RE: Nice video about Danish furniture ID	1 Relevance	5 years ago	Kyle Barrett	Identification
	Yes, it's lovely to finally have a YouTube channel to subscribe to, that tells us about this stuff that we love on the regular. I'm specifically grateful to them, as they started podcasts initially in Swedish and now their YouTube channel is predominantly in English. I wouldn't like to assume that doing the video productions they do, in a second language is a thing of ease.
