| I have acquired several Eam... I have acquired several Eames Storage Units over the last 15 years and i have them in my warehouse , always wondering where can i put them. I did have one re powder coated in the original black since the rust and deterioration took its toll but the original chrome thank goodness still looks great , I have had these things taken apart on 3 occasions and they were not difficult to put back together so to ship them would be real easy, I have not seen any of the fake stuff from Mod ... | |||||

| Market reasons | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | Gustavo | General discussion | |
| Market reasons Everybody: What I wanted to point, is this: Another good reason for choosing an original instead of a copy is for market reasons and market demand: When one goes inside the market, it,s not so difficult to detect which are the ,genuine demand, (business world words) or ,the last trend, (funky cool world words). Although I,m ,,very far,,, it,s no so difficult to see that de Barcelona was very demanded (then 1st place now 2nd ) because the new number one is... Charles Eames Lounge Chair. (Just counting the comments in the threads.) But there a ... | |||||

I went buy is shop on Friday and he was telling me that these were so much more work than he though they had to be all hand sanded, as the 50 year old patina was tough as nails at trying to remove, So any one who says it is a piece of cake i would love to visit with them cause this guy , and I k ... | |||||

| Perhaps these plastics offer ... Perhaps these plastics offer so much freedom that people are confused about what to do with them? Is the pink block chair upholstered foam? I think taking something with potential and giving it none, making it mute and contradictory is sad. This is what I mean by being respectful of material, but I know I'd find working with plastics difficult, I like constraints. | |||||

| ... moving on to step B. Have you noticed that bored people tend to have a lot of charisma they can tap into? Once they get bored, it kicks in and there surfaces a spirit of momentum that is difficult to ignore. I define boredom as the result of an unwillingness to do the work. I think postmodernism came about as a result of this. And I think the world today suffers from it - badly. I look at flat screen TVs and entertainment devices such as the iphone (I don't care who designed them) as some current manifestations of today's tense tired postmodernism. How many ... | |||||

| ... of that alienation. Kafka was a Jew, so most anti-semitic central europenas don't bother with him too much except in Prague to sell Kafka teeshirts. I think it was Kundera, not Milos, that coined the lightness of being phrase. But yes, that echoes that existential impotence, in a East Block communist type of way. Every good idea turns totalitarian if it requires compulsory enrollment. Anyone who says he has THE answer should have his wings clipped. My humble opinion is that this modern world is in dire need of some serious regression. The more that idea is ... | |||||
| investmment purchases | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | room606 | General discussion | |
| investmment purchases That could be fun. I would say you could do quite well with 10,000 to spend, but I wouldn't buy just one item, rather diversify, and buy 20 items at 500 each. As long as they are rather rare in today's terms, difficult to produce, ergo difficult to reproduce, are at least somewhat practical, you would do very well in 10 years' time - probably better than most other invenstments. I would say the things shouldn't be too rooted in any genre, as that genre could fall into bad favor, rather interesting in a 2117 sort of way. Definitely buy i ... | |||||

| if you have ever worked on... if you have ever worked on chairs The molding and folding will be very difficult, when you use foam you outline the chair and staple or glue what ever you need to do.then put poly on after that , This stuff is heavy heavy, hard to cut and impossible to mold(now someone will say they did it and love it ) but for the most part very heavy stuff. best bet stick with good quality foam you will be real happy with it. If you have a small chair and want just the seat this would work ... | |||||
| Knoll Brno | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | James Collins | General discussion | |
| Knoll Brno The bottom line is virtually none of the knock-offs use stainless steel, too difficult to form and finish well. Knoll sells the chair in chromed steel or the much more expensive stainless. If it's stainless it's almosty certainly knoll. I have six Knoll chairs from before 1972 and none have a knoll stamp. Get a magnet. If it sticks stongly it's chromed steel, skip it unless it's dirt cheap. If the magnet drops off it's stainless and worth keeping/recovering as needed, That frame will survive the next 2 or 3 global armageddeons.... chromed steel wi ... | |||||
