| Noticeable? Oh Lordy, Woof Woof! | 1 Relevance | 17 years ago | Olive | General discussion | |
| Noticeable? Oh Lordy, Woof Woof! YES! Unequivicably, YES! Comparing drip to press, is like comparing Dunkin' Donuts to actual coffee. (Anyone for a Pumpkin Latte...gack!) The difference is very noticable and the cloudiness of the pressed brew is part of the goodness, not a reason for dismay! | |||||

| DC... Press vs Drip...is... DC... Press vs Drip...is it really that noticeable of a difference in taste/quality? I've only used a press once, in my late teens in the backcountry. Don't recall the brand. There were too many grounds left in the brew and opted for the bandanna method. Currently using a Krups drip..but all in all, I'm a willing convert to drip. What about stovetop glass percolators? | |||||

| Thanks Lucifersum, I... Thanks Lucifersum, I understand what you are saying about the construction of the shells, but if you compare a vintage shell with a modern one you have a difference of 2mm. The older shells are 7mm thick whilst the newer versions are 10mm. | |||||
| Myth | 1 Relevance | 17 years ago | LuciferSum | General discussion | |
| Myth Sounds like a myth. The plys are arranged at right angles to one another which highlight the difference in grain - except for the four outer plys, which at a glance look like on thick ply. If a layperson were to glance at the wood they would see light, dark, light, dark light - five. | |||||
| I pretty much entirely agree with Lucifersum | 1 Relevance | 17 years ago | Olive | General discussion | |
| I pretty much entirely agree with Lucifersum the only difference our opinion is that I think I would prefer the darker color as it would ground the space. As for it feeling too heavy, I doubt it. The Neo is very light on its feet. It has a good amount of clearance from the floor and doesn't sit up high either. I truly think that the Neo is just about the best built unit of its type you can get for the price...and yours is a very good price. The hubs and I considered the Charles by Citterio from B&B Itallia. $16,000 for the unit we wanted, which looked nearly ... | |||||

| ... owner of the newly acquired piece with it! It is all far too simple to me. Why should Mona Hatoum's "Paravent" look like a kitchen tool? Why would an ugly sculpture by Zaha Hadid be well designed when you decide to call it a bench? Very pragmatic indeed! Let's face it, the emperor has no cloths. Why can we not judge Marcio Kogan's building as architecture? Why should we start to see it as a sculpture? I would not go down that path because it would simply not stand a chance if it was judged as a sculpture. In a public space I have no need for someone to exp ... | |||||
| Dear Gustavo | 1 Relevance | 17 years ago | koen | General discussion | |
| Dear Gustavo The other day I was listening to Schubert's "Hymnen An die Nacht" for piano only, interpreted by the North-Africa born French pianist Brigitte Engerer. She plays a wonderful Steinway and does it with such understanding of the possibilities of both the music and the instrument that I was speechless for hours after the last note was gone. I envy musicians, both composers and interpreters for being able to create art with such intensity and to do it with relatively simple means of production: the piano. They do not use much energy, not much more en ... | |||||

| Aluminum Lounge | 1 Relevance | 17 years ago | LuciferSum | General discussion | |
| Aluminum Lounge I had an aluminum group mid-height lounge redone. Total cost was about $1000. It looks okay, but not as crisp as the factory ones. A factory mid-height lounge would have cost about $1400. So, not too much difference between the vintage redo and the brand new. If I had known the total cost before i bought the chair I might have chosen differently. Or tried a diY. | |||||
| 5 ply shells | 1 Relevance | 17 years ago | Poach | General discussion | |
| 5 ply shells I've never noticed a difference between the lounge chair plies. Mine (1976 production) has 5 inner plies, plus the rosewood face plies, for a total of 7. However, the rosewood plies are so thin that they are nearly imperceptible when examining the edges of the chair. Maybe that's the source of confusion. Where there definitely has been a change is in the DCM / LCM / DCW / LCW line of chairs. The older ones do indeed have a total of 5 plies, which includes the face plies.The chairs are also much thinner than newer production. This means they ... | |||||
| Design Art | 1 Relevance | 17 years ago | Gustavo | General discussion | |
| Design Art What can be more interesting is to see what happen on Industrial Design. Now, let's see if we could apply this on the other direction. Is design an art?, well that's for another thread, but .... Industrial design as art is an issue baned for a long time. I think it was coherent to think that way in the beginning of industrial design. Artist were the one that began to design objects and furniture so provably the temptation (or mistake) to make a piece of art from each object was big. Tomas Maldonado was a painter but clearly marked the difference. ... | |||||

| cont. Even if it was on a different level a social critical choice and he would have justified it by saying (and I deliberately invent a silly symbolism) that the favelas-like juxtaposition of unrelated surfaces shows how the larger mass (the building) of poor Argentines supports the wealth of a smaller mass(the window) that represents the economical elite. I would still be offended because a building is not the appropriate space. These are billboard buildings, expressions of the authority grabbed by someone not to express the priorities and values of a soci ... | |||||

| Mike, the number means March... Mike, the number means March 1963. I see what you mean about the condition, however, as someone mentioned on the previous thread - restoring and recovering an Egg chair isn't for the fainthearted and will cost a lot. You could try cleaning it first of all to see if that makes any difference? Is the foam dry? | |||||
