This caught my eye

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

The other day (after finding the hex tiles) I was surfing the net, looking for interesting tiles, sheets and other interesting items and surfaces that could work well in a modern home… then I came across Robin Reigi and their lacquered panels.
Simply put, these are amazing. I can honestly say that I was (and still […]

Picture borrowed from Knoll
Another fabulous design classic from the 1930’s. The Hardoy Chair (also known as the Butterfly or BKR chair) was designed by Jorge Ferrari-Hardoy in 1938 and originally produced by Knoll. You’ll notice that the original doesn’t have folding legs… they’re fixed and actually look much better because of it.

Say that word out loud and you’re bound to have at least one person ask you what the heck you’re talking about! But don’t let that discourage you because the Gorillapod is a very cool and useful gadget for the photographer in all of us.
