A friend of mine has launched a gorgeous range of 60s inspired thin wire outdoor furniture (in white or black). I suggested he call it the Palm Springs Collection, because it would look so damn swellegant around the Kaufmann House pool. Now he wants me to come up with names for each piece in the collection, and I thought about assigning names inspired by Palm Springs itself. Examples might include: The Las Palmas, the Alejo, The Manilow, The Shulman, The Alexander, the Sinatra.
What do you guys think??? And please be constructive. I know there's a couple of you out there in design addict cyberspace who can be quite cruel.

the two finest areas in ...
the two finest areas in the Palm Springs area today are Rancho Mirage, and Palm Dessert,
Perhaps another great name for the outdoor furniture might be the Dessert collection .
The mountains are called the coachilla mountains,
Sunnylands owned by the Walter Annebergs is the other great home,
Barry Manalow i would not waste my time with him, as he really was nothing in Palm Springs,
Want more just ask.
If you?re going for that...
If you?re going for that vibe how about an acronym of Palm Springs followed by a number (like the case study houses CSH 21) something like PS15,PS16 I know the CSH programme was more LA but hey it?s not to far away :p
As far as towns / areas in the Coachella valley I much prefer North Palm springs, it has that great mix of open desert landscape and modernist buildings that looks so great, for me the further you go down the valley the more diluted this becomes,
