| ... for a design hypothesis, I would argue that design is about finding eloquent solutions to a problem. With that in mind, consider how other designers have sought to solve the problem of pop-up seating and/or seating for 4 or more people. Adam Goodrum's Stitch Chair (see link) is a good example of an eloquent solution or interpretation of the ubiquitous folding chair. There are loads of interesting designs on google but you really need to list all the problems you are trying to solve before you start drawing. The suggestions you have received show that the d ... | |||||

| ... specially for people who go for seminars. For example, when people go for a break after one part of the Seminar, they'll find it difficult to find a seat and therefore, they need to stand? In summary, my product environment would be at the Lobby where people go for their Refreshment break. So, could you kindly give some ideas or maybe sketch some ideas that you have? Thank you. Anyone out there, please do Contribute. | |||||
| Nice looking cat | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | tchp | General discussion | |
| Nice looking cat Moller chairs are always an oil finish, which is generally self-evident as there is no coating of varnish on them. Black cord is quite difficult to come by in the U.S., and expensive. The only supplier I know of, in the UK, told me they no longer ship it to the U.S. You are saying there is no support under the chair fabric at all? Literally nothing? Are there any pre-existing nail or staple holes from the original upholstery or cord? | |||||

| ... The Heidi Weber models were carefully produced and of extraordinary quality. However, they were very expensive. These are the models which are in the MOMA collection. However, in 1964, in order to make the models available to the general public Heidi Weber gave a sublicense to Cassina. Cassina was a producer of commercial furniture for hotels and steamships and Heidi Weber chose them in the hope that they would produce a relatively inexpensive edition in good quality. In the sublicense agreement Cassina was obliged to continue to emboss each piece with a re ... | |||||
| Thanks guys..... | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | tick | General discussion | |
| Thanks guys..... I really appreciate you taking the time to respond. The wall sconces are very well made and have brass or copper edging at the end of the cones. Finding the designer will be difficult but there is bound to be a picture in a 1950's magazine somewhere. It would be great to see a pic of the wall sconces you mentioned John, they sound similar to these lamps. The lamps are most likely Australian but the Mategot influence is unmistakable. Anyone think they know the designer? Thanks for your time. Cheers, Tick. | |||||

| The cost of refinishing was b... The cost of refinishing was based on the the colour needing to be custom made. I'm not terribly worried about it being a perfect match, but I don't want to ruin the table, or it's value in the future. The repair might be the more difficult part. It's astonishing how poorly constructed some of these old MCM pieces of furniture are. Particle board, screw in legs, wire frames, etc...My understanding was that most of this stuff wasn't built to last very long. | |||||

| Thanks guys ( Tulipman... Thanks guys ( Tulipman and jdip ). I know the color should be flat so I'm affraid it will be difficult to find a flat paint in a body shop. I guess , they don't paint lamp shades that often and I don't see cars with satin or flat finish around. I'm so afraid of doing it myself with a spray paint since I don't believe it's possible to achieve flawless , even and very thin layer of paint. But, to start spraying first on a cardboard, is excellent advice ! Just in case.... I removed shades from the lamp ; one of the legs was very lo ... | |||||

| Urea-formaldehyde | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | tktoo | General discussion | |
| Urea-formaldehyde The brittleness sounds right. I've never used it, but I thought resorcinol had poor gap-filling performance. A too thick glue line might explain a premature failure. Teak has always had a reputation for being difficult to glue due to its natural waxy resins. It may be that something else entirely was commonly used. I really don't know. I think urea-formaldehyde glues may still be used in exterior-grade plywoods and often those glue lines appear almost black. | |||||

| la chaise hi, I am a vintage dealer and i have had quit a few "la chaise" chairs in the past years. this is indeed a very difficult chair to tell if its genuine or not.. I have seen very good copies, where even the labels seems authentic. to be honest, i believe the finish of you chair isn't perfect enough to be a Vitra. but.. the shell could have been repainted, as I know for a fact sometimes the paint lets go at some point. the wood seems original and so does the metal. but to be 100% sure, you have to weigh it! a original la chaise has to be 32kg. if its ... | |||||
