	Bob van Allen I'm in love with all things Bob van Allen. This was my first piece of his. Had he not died so young, I think he would have been a huge name in the biz.
	To further complicate matters	1 Relevance	14 years ago	Pegboard Modern	General discussion
	To further complicate matters ... Herman Miller distributed Kjaerholm designs in the early/ mid 1980s shortly after Kjaerholm died and right around the time that production shifted from EKC to Fritz Hansen. As we are in the Mid-West USA we see a fair amount of these Herman Miller distributed pieces that are unmarked other than sometimes a "Denmark" stamp or sticker. It's always been unclear to me whether it was EKC or Hansen production that Herman Miller was selling in the US. However, in terms of value the pieces clearly marked EKC fetch a considerably high ...

	I have probably 15 pieces of vintage Le Creuset which I use daily and they are in varying states of grunginess/decomposition. No one has died or even sickened yet from eating anything cooked in/on them, so I say, bon appetit.
	the haunted villa	1 Relevance	13 years ago	NULL NULL	General discussion
	... The close friendship that existed between Gray and Badovici was one of mutual respect. He asked her to design this villa for him and also the interior of his Paris apartment . However, the famous Transaat armchair now attributed solely to Gray was patented in both his name as well as hers. Since Gray made no secret of being lesbian, it's absurd to put Gray "in the closet" by suggesting that Badovici had been her lover. When Badovici died in 1956 the Villa was inherited by his niece,a Romanian nun who put it on sale.Since Corbu preferred quiet Swiss rather t ...
	Gavina & Bonomia	1 Relevance	13 years ago	NULL NULL	General discussion
	Gavina & Bonomia Dino Gavina sold his company,Gavina SpA to Knoll in 1968. Gavina had signed a license agreement with Marcel Breuer in 1962 and produced the Wassily Chair and four other models of Breuer. However,Dino Gavina never produced any of the Mies models. dino Gavina is justly considered the "father" of Modern furniture design in Italy. He was a great editor of modern design and the collection of furniture that he produced as Gavina SpA and the collection of lamps that he had promoted and produced as the founding partner and leading spirit behind Flos ...

	A first letter-contract... A first letter-contract between Mies and Knoll was signed on June 16,1953 and was cancelled by a second letter-contract signed on 1 Nov. 1965. Paragraph 7 states that this contract must be construed according to NY State law which did not recognize the "rights of authorship" with regard to furniture and, in particular, since the models under consideration,had not been patented nor eligible for patent were clearly in public domain. The contract cannot be interpreted as transfer of patrimonial or moral rights of authorship. It only p ...
	Farnley Hey	1 Relevance	15 years ago	shipwright (UK)	General discussion
	Farnley Hey This house was for sale a while ago. I wonder what happened to it? Another place was the home of Peter Moro in Blackheath London, architect of Royal Festival Hall. I had the fortune of visiting Peter there shortly before he died. His place was full of Robin Day furniture and various other works. He gave me his copy of "The Modern House Revisited"http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/obituary-peter-moro-1179... http://www.paul-holberton.net/the-modern-house-revisited,product,view,80... http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/prope ...

	... the Collected Works of Le Corbusier. Le Corbusier made no secret of the fact that he disapproved of the layout of the house. In particular, Le Corbusier was very disturbed by the manner in which one entered the house and the way in which one passed from one room to another. For him,walking through an architectural work was an important experience and Le Corbusier felt that it had been handled badly. Since Badovici had been the architect, Le Corbusier attributed the reponsibility for this defect to Badovici rather than to Eileen Gray. Le Corbusier admired Ei ...
	India ink	1 Relevance	14 years ago	leif ericson - Zephyr Renner	General discussion
	India ink Is water plus soot (carbon) plus a water based hardened or adhesive. So if you put that over a coat of oil based stain, you best case scenario would be a died film that peels.right off the top, leaving you right where you were. You worst case is that the oil based stain has not completely saturated the wood's ability to absorb, and some India in does soak in leaving the surface even more splotchy than before, and with a film on the surface that will peel off immediately. The only thing you can do now to even out the "color" is to apply oil based s ...
	Mengel Module Cabinets	1 Relevance	14 years ago	studearch	General discussion
	... unfortunately never caught on. Sanders died shortly after. He was instrumental in the design of the 1939(?) World's Fair.My Mahogany Association sticker for Mengel is numbered 345. The Mengel Module line is distinguished also by a stamp on the interior of the drawers as "Permanized" and by the molded, rounded drawer corners. Although the drawers bear the mahogany stamp, only the visible plies of the drawers are such. Other plies appear to be poplar. The modular dimensions are exactly 36" wide, 18" deep, and 24" tall. The cabinets could be stacked or side by ...

	I would look into Alice and Martin Provensen (Danish-sounding name but they were Americans). They were very prolific illustrators in the 50s through the 70s and maybe later---she continued after he died. They did a lot of children's books in addition to many other things. The style of your thing looks like it could be theirs.

	Ugh	1 Relevance	15 years ago	Brent	General discussion
	Ugh I cringe at this, although not primarily because of the corruption of the chair, but because of how it commodifies patriotism and trivializes war and death. War is horror, and thousands of U.S. soldiers have died since 2001. "Honoring" those deaths with a f*cking ribbon on an Eames chair makes my skin crawl.
