| ... posts qualify simultaneously for two (or more) categories: make and model, repair of, correct use of, designer of, etc. I agree: no avatars, no color (I see we just now have a full-color boxed ad on the page -- jarring on this beautiful site ! Would advertisers consent to reduced intensity of those colors ? Fussy, fussy, I know. . .). Just editing, links, images, placing the posting boxes with the thread visible, and perhaps the typography options mentioned (after all, this medium strains to be conversational, and some means of substitution for tone and ... | |||||
| While not | 1 Relevance | 21 years ago | SDR | General discussion | |
| While not intending to detract in any way from O's professional generosity, and its benefits for the far-away some1, I am reminded of a family anecdote that might (or might not) have more to do with the subject at hand, than did my previous digression. Among the friends and neighbors available when I was growing up in a NY suburb were an illustrator/art director and a fine art importer. The illustrator worked for the prestigeous BBD&O advertising agency, where he prepared print ads for clients like Seagram's (I recall seeing winter-season guache page art sh ... | |||||

| As we wrote in the thread "forum changes »: "Off topic » is the place where 'senior' members of DA can discuss various topics that are not directly related to the previous sections. If you want to share your favorite recipes for cocktails, it's here. However topics subject to controversy (politics, religion, etc.) are prohibited." Since 1998 this forum has generated virtual friendships. What we have tried to offer with this new section is a place where members of Design Addict can chat with each other about other topics that interest them. It is not a reserv ... | |||||

I suspect that in his early youth, you could delete the geeks and the heads. Regardless, in my time, gear heads often became engineers, or mechanics, or filling station owners depending on IQ and family wealth). Greasers were often gear heads also. But there were a few from all ... | |||||

| It doesn't answers completely Found it now: " This message was placed, when we launched the forum, to mark out the field of discussion. The field covered by DA was already very broad (product, furniture, interior, transportation designs, etc.) and we wanted to make sure that we keep a coherence in the contents. This rule is probably unnecessary after all these years. The forum has today a strong enough identity to support certain digressions. You are, of course, invited to speak freely about related disciplines (architecture, graphic design, fashion design.. ... | |||||
| I have this thing about pillows... | 1 Relevance | 17 years ago | Olive | General discussion | |
| ... source. I'm just finishing up sewing a batch of pillows and a reupholstery job on a hassock that complement my new digs here in Santa Fe. I wanted to pass on a new resource I've found. I hope P&A will let this slide as not advertising but the passing on of a resource for others. I got a total of about 10 yards of upholstery fabric 2 that are Maharam and one that was Kravat. I paid a very good price per yard, amazing when I consider that one of the Maharam fabrics is 100% wool. The place offers only offcuts, remnants and discontinued textiles. Ther aren't a ... | |||||

| I don't see where you're... I don't see where you're coming from, barry. It's not as if I was addressing you and you alone with my comments. Pegboard mentioned the chair as well. As I said, I was merely encouraging discussion on this design as caulfield's 'sacred cow' comment sums up the subject matter I was delving into. Why is this design so acclaimed? What makes it stand out? And again, it's not as if you're the one person on the face of the earth who digs these chairs. I reckon I should've said, "Although I find these chairs both disgustingly hideous and ... | |||||

| ... from round bottom to hex top--may be more fitting and truthful for the zeitgeist of our time...maybe for all time. Things are never working out the way one expects and the logic of things seems always to be evolving in unforeseeable, but not necessarily illogical ways, once one digs beneath the apparent chaos to find the logical dynamics driving eventualities. In this sense, the second phase fulfills its premise; its just that our senses don't expect this kind of formal logic to play out this way." Or it could just be that it I prefer some degree of harmoni ... | |||||

| ... between top and bottom. The second version is bold and ambiguous. A circular base composed of hexagons evolves upward into a hex top composed of hexagons. It plays a trick on the eyes tracking up that forces the mind to ask what is happening to the senses here? The premise of the base evolves unexpectedly into the top. I have to vote for the first version, but I am very intrigued intellectually with the second version. The reason I opt for the first one is it feels more satisfying and balanced. It also progresses, or maybe just continues, formally in an obv ... | |||||

And the wonder is that he is willing to play Yoda to so many younger designers, rather than pontificate like some narcissistic cult leader. He will even indulge a nonprofessional like me. So few in this world really know what they are doing, and among those who do, only a few of those are articulate enough to make what they know comprehensible, and among those, only one or two at any given time have designed their life well enough to permit them the ... | |||||

| ... Whether it will be Critical Regionalism applied to design, I do not know, but it seems clear to me that the more "international" young designers try to be the more doubtfull their motivations, the more shallow their language, the more rootless their solutions. I like the somewhat bold enthusiasm with which Olive (as a consumer) digs into other times and cultures. I think that that is the way in which the new consumer is going to use the benefits of the global economy and global communication, rather than by internationalizing design. Just read a few contr ... | |||||

| I had known for a while that my friend had a good Dansk collection, especially pepper mills, but the whole house exceeded my expectations. Besides Dansk, there are also plenty of other Quistgaard designs, Anri Form, digsmed, Scan Form, etc pieces. And the Danish Modern collection is only one of many different collections in the house, some of which can be seen in the background of the previous photos. In addition to maybe having the most extensive private Dansk collection in the world quantity wise, it is just as impressive quality wise. I think he has over ... | |||||

| Straight cylinder jars available Hello all; I know this is an old thread, but I just stumbled on this when I was looking for sites or blogs concerning Danish Modern Teak furniture. If any of you come back and revisit this thread, I have some straight/cylinder shaped digsmed 1964 bottles I'm willing to part out/give away. I have a twelve jar wheel and a case of eleven extra jars that my parents bought when we lived in Germany back in the mid '60s (along with a huge load of Danish teak furniture). I'm comfortable meting out a total of eight jars. This offe ... | |||||
