When thrifting at Goodwill or other vintage shops, it takes a keen eye to choose furniture wisely.

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.

I’m a smoker – I admit it. What I remember most about growing up were the cool ashtrays of the 60s that my father used to have. With so few people smoking nowadays, I thought it would be a good “green” idea to recycle these beautiful pieces into other things like catchalls or fruit bowls. [...]

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 [...]

So C finally corralled me into posting, and it’s fortuitous timing. I just got back from Bonnaroo, everyone’s favorite neo hippie organic loving music festival in the hills outside of Nashville, TN, so I have been immersed in sustainable, vintage, and eco minded hipsters (and a smattering of eco-disinterest, but we won’t hold that [...]

This super-cool modern, vintage industrial bookcase is a terrific find. It’s technically a "General Fireproofing (4-tier) Metal, Stacking Barrister [or] Lawyer’s Bookcase," as you probably can tell. The battleship green/grey color is vintage fabulous, and we love the sealed glass doors. It looks like it’d hold a ton of stuff, [...]

So forget about my post the other day about the Eames shell side chair that I found that I was going to make my office chair. That will now be an office visitors chair. Because I scored this a couple hours ago, for $160:
