| Moi aussi | 1 Relevance | 20 years ago | James Collins | General discussion | |
| Moi aussi Hey O! me too. At 50 I realized I was unhappy with the work I was doing cause I just didn't like doing it any more. Computer animation, web game programming and interface design sounds like a field people are scrambling to get into but I've been doing it freelance for 20 years and I'm tired of it. I want to do something real. Don't get me wrong, I adore technology. I'm on the waiting list for an Apple iphone, but I don't want to make the stuff anymore ... currently on a sort of home improvement sabbatical. | |||||

| MDF | 1 Relevance | 20 years ago | James Collins | General discussion | |
| MDF I think MDF is well suited to the sorts of projects they allways seem to be popping together on HGTV but not for expensive furniture that SHOULD be expected to last several lifetimes. The only exception is the Saarinen tulip table top as MDF was the best choice, other than stone, for making a large and thin table top that didn't need any sort or frame or undercarriage to keep the wood from warping. | |||||

| hey Greenjunky, I did a sear... hey Greenjunky, I did a search on your name on this forum and didn't find any other posts you've replied to or written before. Something tells me you're from Modern Dose trying to fool the rest of us. I could be wrong but I'm leery of first timers affirming a business that doesn't seem to be legit. | |||||

| ... interior design drowning in black, off-white and earthly colours (very simplified, I know). Because if there's something the Memphis stuff demands (besides your money!), it's attention. I'm sure they all had a lot of fun designing, but the motive behind, their agenda, was serious. And yet today, the Memphis movement still stands out as a sort of nervous but creative tick. Just like Sottsass intended to. Yes, it was short-lived but his point was proven. I really admire that. I'm mainly attracted to the bold colours and it's ridiculous, yet well thought-out s ... | |||||

| Berg | 1 Relevance | 20 years ago | room606 | General discussion | |
| Berg Huge thanks for that. I didn't know about the industrial design background. There seem to be two directions of his furniture, 1. the Mathssonesque ergonomic webbed seats (which seem more fluid than Mathsson's even) and 2. the barrel chairs and wing chairs that rival Juhl's (of the era) in imagination. (The refrigerator story is interesting as some of these later chairs are steel wrapped.) I am trying to locate the connections between these folks. Will attempt to locate your resources and hopefully others. | |||||

| This is to assume | 1 Relevance | 20 years ago | Robert Leach | General discussion | |
| This is to assume that 'abstraction' ever took place. abstraction, for me, would require the intervention of an artist or an artistic mind. Depending one one's viewpoint, such a thing didn't really exist in prehistoric or Egyptian times..the two examples you have offered. what we now call art at that time, and indeed up until much later- even up until the time of the Renaissance, was representation, information, idolatry or even propaganda, not the work of one man alone conveying an idea or a concept... i.e Art as we now know it. Maybe you and I, and Mr. Wor ... | |||||
| or, can I just replace the chair back? | 1 Relevance | 20 years ago | Ashley_Sea | General discussion | |
| or, can I just replace the chair back? I didn't think of this at first, but is it possible to buy a replacement (new, or like-new) chair back, and attach it to the rubber shock mounts on the chair? It would have to also be walnut veneer, or something that would look stylish with the walnut seat and legs (I'm open to suggestions!). Any idea where I'd even start looking, for a purchase like this? My time spent on Google tonight has been without any luck... Thanks again! - Ashley | |||||

And, Vivienne, I'm telling you right now, drink or no drink, I refuse to go down to LA to one of those reputedly dank black and blue parlors for this sentencing and punishment. Public shamings must be public and in the town square of the most bourgois community available. 🙂 The bent wood model I like is called Pegasus. It comes in high and low backed versions. The one I liked was the low backed version, though the high backed version would be even more comfy, I suppose, though I ... | |||||

We were looking at something by Pollack, and I was explaining to her the possible role of society on his emergence in what I'm certain now were way too elaborate terms. She seemed to be pondering what I was saying, then responded in her most serious tone, "he liked to scribble, didn't he". | |||||

| I have a 5' Nelson bench,... I have a 5' Nelson bench, and I love it aesthetically. It's a bitch to use though. It causes wobbly coasters and when I play cards in the living room they always fall through the slats. This was one of the first pieces I saved for and bought and I didn't consider function at all. However, i just can't ever seem to find the one that satisfies both my aesthetic and functional requirements. Someone has suggested putting glass on top. That just seems like it would ruin it's airy persona.I would love something with a glass top and bot ... | |||||
