| Unfortunatly... Unfortunatly, I can say that NOBODY knows which one is the best. It is actually very difficult to see the chair, so each person who has bought one says : "I'm happy". You can try to search my post (with Austin on the seach fields), where I try to show differences between the real Knoll chair, and the others. I choose to buy mine here http://www.design-classics.it/web/ simply cause they did have a good description of the chair, and I have been convinced by the foam density the announce, and the type of leather. But this is not a clone of the ... | |||||

| Here's a question for you, Koen... "Reproduction is not only the purpose of design it is the inherent characteristic."--KdW Having been a real estate feasibility analyst for a period of my life, I have often contemplated the differences and similarities between real estate developments and other kinds of goods and services in the economy. One of the conclusions I came to was the real estate developments are rather more unique than fungible. Most office buildings, shopping centers, factories, etc., tend to be custom fitted to their sites and zoning and planni ... | |||||

| Just to give you an update... Based on the reactions on the different 3D modelings, I have looked at different ways of getting from top to bottom with this concept and look at different transitions between the top middle and base. The differences are minor but are certainly worth looking at. In this stage we would start to build rough prototypes in cardboard or some stiff paper, but given Amiel's willingness to 3D model them I am going to wait for his results and see if by showing them here we can reach some kind of concensus. In the meantime we are looking ... | |||||

| Thank you very much for your... Thank you very much for your answers, Koen. I admit that in my great naivety, I had not taken into account the copyright aspect when I tried to list the parameters to determine the sizes. Nor did I think about the filling of the oven. I find this "fine tuning" phase very interesting to follow, it is a bit like a game of chess, each decision is taken by anticipating the consequences on the next steps. It is fascinating to see each element of the process setting up perfectly. The example of the relation of the shape of the vase ... | |||||

| I personnaly don't know how... I personnaly don't know how much it cots in the US. In France, the Conran Shop announce 4300?, which should makes around 3500$. You could have a repro for less than 1000$. You have to see both to know if you go for a knockoff or the "real" Knoll. Repro are not exact copy of the Knoll. You can check my different post on this forum where I've try to note the main differences. | |||||

| WHATS MORE OF A VALUE? Now that we know the differences in chrome plated steel and stainless steel What would last longer in the long run? what is the better quality way to go? Will chrome Plated material hold up longer that Stainless?(provided they are treated with the same use?) Which is more expensive for manufacturers to use? I Know that stainless can be polished down multiple times as opposed to chrome where can chip or pitt over time | |||||

| The wish to deny or mute... The wish to deny or mute any and all specific characteristics it is a basic tenent of Political Correctness.It is a line many follow, the posters above, may not see it but they follow it.Its as if to perceive differences and name them is somehow "wrong" and will be used against the people who exhibit the differences.The P.C. slant less understandably is used with objects:ALL Barcelona chairs are valid,you just take your pick. | |||||
| Misnomer | 1 Relevance | 22 years ago | NULL NULL | General discussion | |
| Misnomer I believe that "case study daybed" is a name created by Modernica when it reproduced the George Nelson for Herman Miller daybed -- the familiar one often seen with the hairpin aluminum legs. Probably for trademark / copyright reasons. As for the original post, my guess is that you can call Modernica and ask them if you can buy the back part of their daybed. Be warned, though: This aspect of the Modernica version is quite different from the original version. (There are other differences as well; the Modernica one is, I think, quite poorly done). | |||||
| Well... | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | koen | General discussion | |
| Well... I do not know it it helps with sales as directly as one would hope but three considerations are important here. 1- We like to choose, simply because it is a step in the appropriation process. 2- More than one size and more than one colour means that it will occupy more shelf space. (retailers do not like to choose for their customers) more shelf space means simply more attention. In comparaison with the time we want to spend in a store the number of products is very big. So more space increases the chance to be notices. 3-There are indeed differences ... | |||||

| apology accepted and no offense taken I just don't think anyone here is a wannabe. We all are obviously passionate about design ... and just like the aesthetic differences among our very favorite designers, we will share those differences as well. My main frustration with the likes of Herman Miller and other large companies that are similar is that they do very little to promote and manufacture new design. They stay in the past, and only make money on the safe designs that are already proven to be financially successful for them. In the old days Herman Mille ... | |||||
| I think there have always been | 1 Relevance | 20 years ago | LuciferSum | General discussion | |
| I think there have always been I think there have always been differences between the Eames designs of Vitra furniture in Europe and Herman Miller in America. About a year ago someone posted a flickr page showing the differences between the Vitra and HM LCW. And the vintage Vitra versions (say that 3 times fast) of the fiberglass chairs are a different shape as well. It doesnt make a lot of sense why the actual design would be changed for each market, so I'm guessing perhaps it is due to the machinery or regulations in those countries. A similar example: ... | |||||

| Dear DC... The fast transition from the talent of Arthur Erikson and the likes to my modest struggle with the proper place and shape and the creation of a succession of architectural emotions for a music shrine on a mistral swept plateau in the Provence was a little dizziling but certainly inspiring. Other than the place to play and record music it is also a place where a few unusual instruments will be kept. The two Steinway concert grands are apparently amoung the five or so best instruments Steinway has build in the last 50 years. One of them I believe i ... | |||||
