| large shockmount repro..... I have located a source that will make a reproduction of the early large shockmounts. The only difference is that the original screws cannot be used with them. You would need to use a screw with the same thread as the more recent shocks. If anyone is interested, let me know. | |||||

| I like that you say 'most'... I like that you say 'most' haircuts deedee - it suggests to me a sense of humor and that you are not totally bitter! Somebody told me once the difference between a good haircut and a bad haircut is about two weeks. And speaking, dcwilson, of haircuts, Pete Maravich, recollections of perfection passed on, and fairness in life, I have to tell you that my father, born pretty average in 1917 on the Kansas/Nebraska border, got to face Satchel Paige in the mid 30's when, banned from the Negro Leagues, the greatest pitcher ever was bar ... | |||||

| ... of space and then there are pretentious wastes of space. One final comment on Wright's insistence on a total synthesis of design: change the exterior color schemes on his houses, even slightly, and particularly FallingWater, and you will note a very marked difference in effect, and not a good one. Now I know this can be said of many premier homes designed by prominent architects, but nowhere have I found it to be more pronounced than with the designs of Frank Lloyd Wright. | |||||

Starting with the Victor Horta chair for the hôtel Tassel in Brussels (we borrowed th one from the Museum of Art of the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburg) Of course the Bloemenwerf chair of Henri Van de Velde, Charles Rennie Mackintosh's Tea salon (on Argyle street in Glasgow) chair, Josef Hoffman's Purkersdorf Sanatorium chair and finally Frank Lloyd Wright's Larkin Building chair. What all of these chairs seemed to have in common was that they did not seemed to have the quality they had in their original setting. FLW's Larkin Building chair was probab ... | |||||

| ... to repeat it. I wanted to ad something to your remark that you do not see Sullivan as "Modern" I can agree with that to, but I have always made a difference between the ideas and the formal language we give them. In the case of modernism the ideas preceeded the form-language by almost two generations. So Sullivan and before him, his employer LeBaron Jenney are using the modernist form language, but are very articulate functionalists. Mies Van Der Rohe's famous drawing of the glass buildings, now in the MoMA (used as illustration in the Adbuster article)was ... | |||||

| I agree... First of all there is of course a huge difference between selling a production ready design and a "concept". I also agree that the best arrangement is to agree on an hourly fee and on the number of hours that will be spend on the design. Royalties are certainly not the best system, those who do well with it like it of course but it is always difficult to manage. | |||||

| ... and draw it afterwards, unless it is part of a learning process and the result of accumulated knowledge. For a craftsman working without a drawing is often the confirmation of both the self confidence of accumulated knowledge and the willingness to learn in the process. Learning from feedback given by the materials, the tools, testing, comments from collegues etc. To draw is to a large extend, to delegate. It is one of the reasons why it is rooted in architecture and not in engineering, and to delegate to yourself does not require any other communication t ... | |||||

| Koen!! wake up !! Kartell Castelli Modular Units are made of A.B.S. (Acryl Butadien Styrene). Although the U.V. part of daylight alters the A.B.S. it is not the A.B.S. that is discoloring but the white pigment. In this case mostly titanium oxyde. The problem with the pigment is that it is imbedded in the plastic and most treatments will never reach the pigment. The only thing you can do is to mix 10% bleach with 90%water...you are going to need the bath tub! and let it soak in there for 24 hrs. depending on the damage it will make a difference but do not exp ... | |||||
