	... it's very hard to read especially in those long lines. writing in all capital letters makes it difficult to distinguish words and letters since the shapes are all relatively uniform. in online chats and such it looks like screaming, though on your site it doesn't, which is good. but for the benefit of your viewers, and to your own benefit, see what it looks like with "ALONG OUR EVERYDAY LIFE WE SEE EACH OTHER SURROUNDED AND BOMBED BY GRAPHIC MESSAGES" etc. in lowercase (with capitalization when appropriate). 🙂 also, i'm finding my browser (safari) is coming ...

	... indeed likely that you stumble over some interesting ideas in that process. These ideas fall either on the wayside and start a live of their own (see: Apple as an off-spring of Xerox) or you change strategy by adapting to the new ideas. Flexible strategies seem to work better? There might still be two other reasons. When the prices dropped because of south-east Asian prices they did not drop to the level where they eventually stopped. In the first round it still seemed possible to compete with Danish production standards and within Danish social and environ ...

	... the royalties on the complete bowls. Another German company realized that one of the weak points in the design was the separate ring. They came on the market with a bowl that had a dovetail shaped edge under the bowl that slides into a lose ring. The ring was held onto the bowl but the bowl could still change position. It was smart but it could only be done in a thermoplastic material and not in melamine. A year or so later Ikea came on the market with a cheaper version of the WMF system: a stainless steel bowl and a softer thermoplastic ring. Up to this da ...

	... sums of money telling these hypnotized automatons what to want to consume, and have to do so in such childishly simple conceits (however fiendlishly and cleverly they may be executed), that the products that will satisfy these hypnotized automatons decreasingly bares any resemblance to something that a rational adult with a prudent sense of personal and civic responsibility, some refinement in taste and a sense of value for dollar might prefer. This in turn makes it very difficult for designers to do authentic work. Why? Because in this kind of a society, t ...

	... for lousy research when it comes to patents) patents expire after 18-22 years depending on the conditions under which they have been granted. That leaves two other possibilities open: Copyrights and protection of Industrial designs (sometimes, becaue of the U.S. practice called design patents. Only copyrights would still be valid because they extend beyond the dead of the creator. But copyrights are limited in this case to images of the product (pictures technical drawings, illustrations etc.,not the product. Actually, a product, no matter what it is can on ...
	Oh man, how can I forget...	1 Relevance	21 years ago	sharplinesoldtimes	General discussion
	... show of Jacobsen's work some years ago at the Lousiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark, they had displayed absolutely everything they could find of his fabrics and wall papers and I've never know he'd done so much and of such a high quality. It must have been quite a difficult task since his fabric are VERY hard to come by. Anyway, I was absolutely blown away. Would someone please write a book about this man's fabrics and wallpapers?
	expensive	1 Relevance	21 years ago	Brandon	General discussion
	... I think that was a great deal given the diffiulty of getting the curves right on this piece. It should be noted that upholstering this chair proved so difficult in the 1950's that Fritz Hansen had to develop a new upholstering process they later patented. Make sure you find the best person you can because re-upholstering doesn't get much more difficult than this chair.

	I've seen some bad replica's... I've seen some bad replica's too. The angle is wrong or the height is way off etc. Is thatbecause they are to difficult to replicate or are there any rules or laws that prohibbit the imitators for making them in the right size.
	bad	1 Relevance	21 years ago	some1	General discussion
	bad All replicas of that particular chair that i've seen are really bad , and most importantly , they are not cheap. They are just aBOUT 20-25% cheaper than Adelta international.Ball and bubble are one of the few things that is really difficult to make them in a cheap way.even if you find one that looks good it is sure that it will brake very soon.That chair might look simple but in reality it is a very difficult project .The base...the angle of the opening....the swivel mechanism of such a big ball shaped thing that has to balance when somebody seats in.The ...

	dear Alex and other intrested readers... Your question is a difficult one for people of my generation. Let me explain why and then try to answer your question. I came to this profession in two stages but from the beginning my motivation was to contribute to re-building the relative prosperity that was destroyed in WWII. As a child we played in bombed houses, went to temporary churches, and called barracks hastely put on top of the rubble, our schools. I probably had no talent (as a child I could not draw well, I am still considered to be clumsy and my useful ...
	Small space	1 Relevance	21 years ago	DavidDC	General discussion
	Small space For me, one of the advantages of living in a small space (1,100 square foot rowhouse) is that it has not been difficult filling it up with things I love/enjoy. I have absolutely no more space for furniture, although eventually I will want a new coffee table, but that can wait. Oh, and I want two flatscreen tvs - one for the living room and one for the bedroom - but those, too, can wait. My latest passion (some may call it an addiction) is cooking, and I love the new cuisenart 11-cup food processor I got as a gift this xmas! I also bought myse ...
	Know your upholsterer	1 Relevance	21 years ago	James Collins	General discussion
	Know your upholsterer Having recovered a number of mid century pieces over the years many are notiriously difficult. Others are quite simple. Saarinen chairs with the upholstered back will make you wish you'd bought them new. Brno chairs Knoll will TELL you are very difficult. That's bull. They come apart very neatly and it's just an L shaped frame to cover. The most important thing is find yourself a good upholsterer. Any good shop will be happy to give you a firm estimate if you send them good photos and dimensions of an unknown chair or just the name of a ...

	From time to time... Regarding your shrug and Copeland's relevance, his work has sometimes been described as being part of the modernist tradition of 20th Century symphonic music. Perhaps some dissonant 12 tone harmony composer would have made the point more clearly. sigh Next, regarding your assertions about prefab treehouses, if I understand you correctly, what you're saying is: you're backing down from your overbroad assertion that no kids would want a prefab tree house in a modernist idiom, and qualifying it by saying shrug some might. But you just ...

	In my experience... the router is too difficult to control. The revolving speed is quite high and contrairy to a band saw were you can easily go back and forward with the piece you want to cut, I feel the router does not give you the same feel. You also have to make a template...This being said, the router, especially robot routers are frequently used to cut vac formed plastic pieces n the industry and I have seen cases where the result was better than laser cutting. To finish the edge flaming is still the best. But let's hear from others to.
