| ... is in the midwest and east, or coiffed and tightly bounded the way it is in Europe. You do not have to go look for it as you do in the East and Midwest and South. Or wait for it, as in weather changes. Its always here, looming in the sunlight above us in mountains, or canyons, or buttes, or mesas, etc. Its not that this landscape forces grander, or more onerous engineering feets; nothing could be grander, nor more onerous than the engineering of nature that has been done to Europe and to America east of the Mississippi. Its just that out in the West, the va ... | |||||
| Eames DCW copy ...restoration and identification? | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | sillyrabbit | Identification | |
| Hi, I'm new here. Last night I found a great looking but dilapidated chair on the street. I knew it looked familiar, and when I looked it up, saw it was likely a copy of the DCW. No label, no marking. The dimensions are about 1/2-3/4" smaller than those stated all over the web for the authentic DCW. However, it's a really nice chair, but needs much work. The one thing I'm really curious about is the shock mounts. I've come across many posts mentioning the relatively hard to find "lozenge" shaped or oval shock mount on the back rest. Oddly, though I think th ... | |||||

| Thanks Heath, that was well worth a look. I have always been captivated by abandoned and dilapidated buildings. I think I have posted this link on the forum before, but it is fascinating stuff. http://www.silentuk.com/indexabove.html | |||||

| The Real HM! | 1 Relevance | 18 years ago | NULL NULL | General discussion | |
| The Real HM! I totally agree - and it continues to surprise me that Miller's reputation has never really recovered from the bashing it took in the 70s from now largely discredited critics. Judging by your comments I guess you have 'The Angel is My Watermark' in mind where Miller decribes his approach to painting.......... "During the leg experiments the stomach has become dilapidated. I patch it up as best I can--until it looks like a hammock. Let it go at that. If it doesn't look like a horse when I'm through I can always turn it into a hammock" ? Perfect. | |||||
| Schnadig Chair Re-upholstery Project | 1 Relevance | 16 years ago | flyingpatricio | General discussion | |
| As part of my trade I've been refinishing wood...floors, trim, cabinets, etc...for close to 18 years. As a hobby I've always enjoyed refinishing pieces of dilapidated furniture I've come across, mostly tables and chairs with stapled on fabrics. I've gotten quite good at the wood, so this past Winter I decided to take upholstery classes at a custom interior shop down the street from my house so I can tackle bigger and better pieces. My first project is a Schnadig Chair from the early 60's, or as my Wife and I refer to it...the "Funky Chair". Two-tone Orange c ... | |||||

One would never guess this futuristic place exists within the confines of an old brick house down the street from grafitti, dilapidated buildings and the like. Please take a moment to read this and take the tour on the architects' site. http://pitchfork.com/news/37913-peek-inside-wayne-coynes-freaky-oklahoma-city-compound/ | |||||

| ... but it's tempting to leave it as-is with the old repair and dilapidated shock mounts. lots of character. The bolt heads were even counter sunk! (with a dull knife...) 2 pieces from the Omnibus Wall Unit System imported by Raymor, designed by Sven Ellekær and built by Albert Hansens Møbelfabrik. My first teak case goods! The angled ceiling of my top floor apartment means they'll never end up on the wall but that's alright. to be honest these aren't the most recent. I picked up a few danish chord projects this week that I'm excited about (wishbones and ch23s) ... | |||||
| getting there | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | lowlightbw | General discussion | |
| getting there Got the old dilapidated mounts off of one chair yesterday (snow day!) then I wet sanded and cleaned the shell with several cleaners. I got through a lot of the staining but alas there is still some discoloration in the seat. This particular chair had the most staining so I believe I will be able to restore the other shell more successfully. Part of me likes the discoloration throughout the shell as it shows its history. I plan on wetsanding up to 600 and then adding a few coats of penetrol. Should I respray the bases white or leave them as is ... | |||||

| ... have sworn I noticed a white leather Eames lounger. I thought to myself how completely depressing it would be to see something like the Eames lounger, or even a copy, intermingled among this apocalyptic landscape of dilapidated junk...that said, the question is, should a confusion of context/premise really have the power to diminish the impact or import of such a design? And again, I think not. | |||||

To confuse me more, you log on to an internet discussion forum to tell everyone how happy you are without the internet. What are we supposed to say in response? Was your life getting too complicated with all that high falutin' technology? Were you becoming a hermit locked in your dimly lit basement eating TV dinners and spending all your time trading on the interwebs, your skin becoming a sickly gray, your eyes dilated and your brain reeling from the t ... | |||||
