| Tuff call | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | moto modernist | General discussion | |
| Tuff call Fish tanks are fantastic....theres nothing more attractive and engaging than a well kept tank. I appreciate your dilema as they have never really been embraced as a design object , therefore a black hole exists in place of lots of different ideas for display. Maybe you could design a base and have it made by a fabricator. A lot of modernist design lends itself to simple concepts. Or find a real sturdy 50's table and reduce the area of the top and have a tank made to measure. It's true, marine environments are a big ask for beginners and Olive is re ... | |||||

| ... and got people thinking less about the dilema of panties matching matching rugs...roflmao on that one! Theres a turn-around of readers and posters on here and yes it might have been covered in the past but that doesn't mean it can't help prod the mind of a 20 year old whose design vocabualry is limited to 'Eames' + 'Mies' I think there is trepidation in some pople who don't feel like what they would have to say is authentic, I say non-sense! All our freedoms depend on everyone speaking up, with respect and without fear, when we stop doing it we are easy ta ... | |||||
| Original Aalto Finmar Chair 66 - wax, oil, leave alone? | 1 Relevance | 10 years ago | mjwrightuk | Repair | |
| I recently purchased a wonderful example of the Aalto 66 chair with Finmar label attached, this means it was imported to the UK in the 1930's from Finland. It is in unrestored completely original condition. My dilemma is whether the surface should be treated with some wax or oil to help maintain it because it seems very dry throughout. Indeed it is already split slightly in two places on the back; these are probably old stress fractures but I still fear that the ply may split further if not moisturized. Advice received thus far is to leave it alone, which I ... | |||||

I just want to add that in the end, your final decision is the one the best suits your needs. I also went through a similar dilemma, besides the aesthetics, budget was also a big factor. Vladimir Kagan once said, "no amount of planning can replace dumb luck". I had to make a split second decision between a $99 Le Corbusier leather sofa from the 1970s by Cassina from the Salvation Army or a new one for $12,000.00 down the ... | |||||
| A Dilemma of Chairs | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | brenthenry | General discussion | |
| I am currently furnishing a new two bedroom apartment and must make an important decision:Do I purchase one authentic Kartell Louis Ghost chair, to be used as an accent chair in my bedroom, or two acryllic knock-offs so that I may have one in the guest bedroom as well?I look to build up to a set of four chairs over time, real or fake, but as of now with the expense of furnishing an entire apartment from scratch, I am only willing to spend up to the cost of one Kartell chair, which is currently on sale ($70 off) at Design Within Reach/YLighting.What would you do in this situation? Buy one real chair, or two fakes? | |||||
| Deka vs. Cathrineholm | 1 Relevance | 16 years ago | deedee9:14 | General discussion | |
| Hey there storm chasers! Can anyone shed some light for me on a source dilemma? I love the lotus patterned Cathrineholm enamelware dishes. Little kitschy but cute. From what I understand though, CH was the factory that produced that particular pattern. So where does deka this company from New Jersey come in? did they license the design? Steal it? Any info would be most helpful. | |||||

| Inheriting Your Parents' Mid-Century Stuff | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | Riki | General discussion | |
| Since I am sick of all of the ID threads, I thought I would tweak your brains on a current dilemma on another note entirely. So, I just went past my 50th birthday. I have three grown children. Kid A could not care less about the "stuff" in Mom and Dad's house. Kid B is slightly aware that there is some "stuff" in the house that might be worth some money. Kid C is totally into all of the "stuff" and will fight to the death to procure it. Do you just divide in thirds and let them fight it out? Do you resign your self that 66% of it is going to wind up on ... | |||||
| Refinishing Old Beech Wood (Wegner) | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | LuciferSum | General discussion | |
| I just picked up a Wegner CH 52 in beech and fabric off Craigslist for $100. Nice find, but the chair is ooold and needs some loving. Or a total facelift. Can't decide, and therein lies my dilemma. The fabric has to go - no question about it. Thinking about replacing it in leather, as that tends to be easier to care for and has a longer longevity. But for the wood...what should I do? It seems to be lacquered (shiny), but it might be soaped and just really really gross. The color is varied all over the chair: very bright, natural on the underside; dark br ... | |||||
| Assistance from a wood refinisher(s) please. | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | shescomeundone | General discussion | |
| Good day to all. I purchased this mid century English made credenza for a design client planning to strip the gawdawful refinish job and have her painted up a la Tommy Parzinger style but found some absolutely beautiful solid and veneered teak beneath. Out with the Parzinger idea an on with a natural finish. My dilemma: how can I keep the wood the awesome pale color as teak oil or tung oil will turn it anywhere from yellow to orange? Have read a few online ideas but you guys and gals have the most rusted advice. Cheers and thanks. Susan in Toronto, Canada | |||||
| Bertoia chairs/ eames wire chairs... | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | Dr_Pepper105 | General discussion | |
| Hi everyone! I recently purchased 4 Bertoia side chairs and 2 eames wire side chairs. Here is my dilemma... I'm having them sand blasted and powder coated, but what color should I do them? I'm tending to lean toward the black on both, but would love some other feedback. Also, if I were to do them in black (or white), was the original a matte finish or a glossy, or somewhere in the middle? Thanks, and everyone have a great Thanksgiving! | |||||

| Intimate design | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | Pegboard Modern | General discussion | |
| ... flatware designs that I thought were very handsome to look at, but when I used them I was very disappointed. They did not feel good in my hand... too heavy, too light, poorly balanced... and worse, if they do not feel good in your mouth where most people are very sensitive to tactile sensations. I wonder if when people are shopping for flatware they would ever be permitted, or even think to try, to put them in their mouth and see how they feel. I imagine that if one really considered it, you would realize a real preference for the shape of knife, the length ... | |||||
