Whether it’s Eames, Saarinen, or Bertoia, you can find a direct knock-off to their most famous pieces, particularly in the chairs, dining chairs and seating departments.  I have the Saarinen tulip chair knock-off and I LOVE IT.  It’s very obvious with these pieces exactly who they are shamelessly knocking off, but really, if you want [...]

Last weekend I saw a couple to-die-for mid-century modern chairs that I had to leave in the shops because I cannot justify owning more chairs. This has had me thinking about chairs, and I realized it has been far too long since my last chair porn post.

Have you figured out yet that I’m obsessed with Mid-Century modern design? Even so, alas, I don’t have the income to go the *authentic* route, what with a child and his future at stake (i.e. I’d rather save for his ivy-league education), so I usually go the knock-off or “inspired-by” route. I like [...]

Mike Witt designs rooms with a modern aesthetic with more than a nod to mid-century influences. Is it obvious that he has spent years of studying, buying and selling 20th century decorative and fine arts? To me these spaces are classics of the future. Even though he uses finishes that may be thought cold [...]

I am a big fan of knock-offs, particularly since I (a) am always on a budget, and (b) I have a 6 year old that likes to destroy furniture during his adventures throughout the house.  I cannot put a $550 Eames chair in the living room simply because it will be probably be nicked, ridden [...]

Just what is design, really? It’s been a mysterious science since Day One.

As the saying goes ‘it’s all in the details’. Every aspect, no matter how big or small, makes or breaks a design, or for that matter the beauty of an object. We can’t explain why we perceive something as better looking – among [...]
