| . A discussion of fasteners is useful and rare. I would be interested in studying their history, something I should have done long ago. Even the best-designed tool can be misused; one cannot blame on the tools the use of the wrong size or shape driver (hand or powered). There are three sizes of Phillips, and at least two of Robertson (square drive), for instance. And, brass screws are used only when weathering or appearance demand them-- fortunately, because the correct-fitting screwdriver is even more necessary with softer metals (as has been stated).

| pt 2: Teema series Concerning the Teema range, the ikea milk jug is proportioned differently (e.g. is much taller) than the Teema jug. The Teema range always has been (still is) a popular range, and perhaps you have already done this, but if you are interested you can search the forum (see top of screen right) for previous posts concerning the Teema range (or other Iittala designs). Since I still have the book ?Scandinavian design? here with me from a previous post, I am tempted to cite a small piece (freely translated from Dutch ): ?The Teema series from Ka ... | |||||

| I suspect that... Mr. Eames Demetrios ignores that our knowledge on the environmental impact of differents materials has evolved since the death of his grand father. Charles and Ray Eames have been part of the many waves of environmentally responsable designers but they did not know what we know now. The environmental load of glassfiber re-enforced polyester is 362 mPt/Kgr. whereas Polypropelene is only slightly lower at 305 mPt/Kgr. Which is quite a distance away from plywood...as in elephants... with 188,000 mPt/ sq. meter | |||||

| A lazy bud with a highly aesthetic sensibility One who likes to lay on a sofa, on a chair on a table, on a desk, in a nesty and natural atmosphere, one where things comes easy. One of a kind who will arrange things on a confortable way. One who do to design, what he would like design do to himself- just kidin- all designers are differents- but lot of them are loners, and unknown persons. | |||||

Everything from carnival glass at filling stations to stream lined trains, to craftsman style homes to bauhaus astringency caught on during that period. when i look at that period, what i see is some people trying to endure the stress of it with fantasies about streamlining...moving through the lean times as fast as possible. And I see others responding with less is more. In the coming period, I suspect we will see a similar bifurcation, but ... | |||||

| ... concept album in the river of rock and roll. Martin said the Beatles were always interested in trying to do things differently. I'm interpreting here a bit, but he also said that by the time they began to make Sgt. Peppers "doing it differently" had become kind of an artistic creed of theirs. And their goal at the time was to make this album as utterly different as they possibly could. For example, Martin said that Sgt. Peppers did not even start out as a concept album, but rather evolved into one as part of the general attempt to concieve something antithe ... | |||||

| One more thing... I just saw this ad in Interior Design Mag. While I do beleive in a person/companies right to own their designs and reap the profit they desrve for the creation of them, this is ridiculous. These two chairs are indeed similar looking, but really is 'similar looking' a reason to label it a knock off? They have quite differetn proportions and upolstery treatments. Is the FFDI really trying to say that no two pieces of furniture can look similar? This can't be right. http://www.ffdi.org/fdi_ad.htm | |||||
| How to ID Saarinen Executive Chairs | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | MLF | Identification | |
| I am interested in getting a set of vintage Saarinen Executive chairs for my dining room. If chairs have the Knoll upholstery tags, can you assume they are legitimate? Or do you also need to measure dimensions? Also, I have seen some vintage chairs bearing only a knoll sticker. Can anyone advise on the apparent differing use of stickers and upholstery tags? | |||||
| Is this table base with a planter Adrian Pearsall? | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | leeway | General discussion | |
| I have seen a few of these tables online attributed to Adrian Pearsall (sometimes with the base/planter turned upside down). Does anyone know if this is correct? They have also been described as being "in the style of" Pearsall, so there seem to be differing opinions about it. | |||||

| Hello, I am in the midst of potentially purchasing this shelving unit. The style and quality of material seemed odd and significant. It also has a layout similar to that of the Nelson CSS systems, however, differing by the location of the knobs and frame setup. If anyone would be able to help identify this piece, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you so much in advance! | |||||

| Time is a human-made infrastructure...Pt. 1 It is like a dike placed on a wild river. The dike is not the river. The dike is the human-made limiting infrastructure placed on the river that allows humanity to exploit certain aspects of the river (i.e., increasing the regularity of its course and depth). Time is a limiting infrastructure overlaid on a wild sequentially unfolding dimension of the universe that is ever unfolding differently in different places. On earth, the wild sequential dimension unfolds in a way that can be approximated in years that can be ... | |||||

I shouldn't have read last week's Time magazine on global warming, I've been depressed ever since. DavidDC, nice to hear from you, you've not been around for a bit. Yours and whitepsike's observation on orange are, I believe, both correct. It is the color most associated with 'modern', I think. And it does seem to be enjoying a rather long run of positive opinion at the moment. I'm betting it will stay on fo ... | |||||

I wouldn't have them in my home, except perhaps the Super Z/V chair, but I certainly appreciate and respect his effort to do things differently by creating his own laungage of shape, colour and choice of materials. I think the coffee table, daybed, sofa and Zeta chairs from the previous auctions at Wright20 must be from his earlier days as a designer. You can see them and others at www.architonic.com/de/mus/8101405/1 I esp. like the daybed. I wouldn't ... | |||||
