I'd be curious to know what you would consider a better domestically made hand made alternative for a television stand, sofa unit, and coffee table in solid wood w/ minimalistic design in Japan for under 15k.

On their own, there's nothing wrong with the furniture you purchased. But you're looking at objects and labels, without an understanding of the whole. Your furniture occupies a space, and it's that space that you're neglecting to address. A designer could have helped you with this.

In any case, as you so proudly declared...

I ... don't give a fuck what others think on this board

...this discussion is moot.

I'm breaking up with her in the morning. Fuck this shit.

I'm somewhat disappointed by your obviously blanket and generic response to my initial question.

I'm still an intellectual and would be interested to hear what certain design principles and "understandings" you find I "neglected" to address or that you subscribe to. How exactly would have a designer approached this better or differently?

I'm interested in modern furniture designers like Minotti, Catherine Memmi, etc. who take a neo-minimalistic approach to their designs using a neutral palette of colors. The lines are clean with subtle 60s/70s influences. In particular I love art-deco/neo-deco and hope to incorporate certain art pieces to my place. To augment the overly modern and clinical affect, I choose dark brown uneven finished wedged oaks for the woods , purple drapes in a traditional Japanese silk/woolen blend w/ subtle stitching variations to allow light in , and I'm having Turkish rugs shipped to give it a more ethnic/asian feel.

Obviously my place is a work in progress but I wanted to initially shut-up the haters who consistently believed I wasn't purchasing these items.

Seems to me like you didn't want to take a stand on this issue which is fine.

Rest your hands in standard QWERTY typing position above your keyboard. Several millimeters below your thumbs is a long rectangular key approximately 8-10cm long. Try pressing this key when typing in standard conventional English. Thanks.

You sound like Bateman reading off a catalogue.

I was getting on the bus yesterday and there was a female ahead of me. I wasn't really paying attention to the other people at the bus stop so I didn't see her face, but as she was getting on the bus I was checking out her ass, and I thought to myself, "nice". Upon boarding said bus I looked at her, and she was definitely in her 60s. Felt a bit like this guy:

it's on motherfuckers. i can't wait to see dudes response to this

[ojjairus]

I think you forgot to even answer my question.

[schmoses]

few days ago, a girl in a store pissed me off so much, i gave a pair of darkshadow denim to a shop boy in another who would really appreciate them. sometimes stupidity in conversation enrages a fellow to do ridiculous seemingly magnanimous things.

[gfunkdocta]

there is no big response

analog's already said the furniture don't fit his (small)space

is it that hard to see that?

i know, it's japan..

[Gatefold]

no $$$ and I'm late on a credit payment, gotta start duckin from collection hitmen

whats with people hating on corbusier?

nobody can tell me that this isnt a classic look

[kuhhlowe]

I saw my best friend had lost 10 pounds, I can't let her get skinnier than me.. looks like I'm going to start working out.

[Servo2000]

its furniture

I don't like sitting in it. Sides mush out on fakes, and even the real deal doesn't feel that great.

I'm more into Bouroullec/Wegner type furniture and have made Judd copies.

[Guest on-display]

im totally going to bang my study group partner. i want to incorporate flashcards into the debauchery

Usually banging ain't an ordeal. Herpes is tho bro.

[Guest on-display]

lol wtf i totally misused the word

*edit

debauchery

[neptunecitylocal]

People keep asking me what colleges I've applied to.

I said "The Academy of Art in SF, why?"

Them "That's it?"

Me "Yeah..."

Them "Oh..."

Then they walk away with this look.

Then I feel kinda embarrassed. WHY?

I should have my nose in the air because I don't to struggle as much as the other kids when it comes to personal statments and that other bullshit, but I feel...unaccomplished?

[duck sauce]

i too feel unaccomplished

[jeepster]

neptune, apply to Parsons

you'd probably like it here.

[samsikle]

yeah they're probably just nervous because they're not going to get into ucberkeley

[neptunecitylocal]

Can't help but feel like I took the easy way out because I didn't really apply anywhere else...

AAU was the first place I applied to and I got accepted within less than 24 hours (because it was that easy).

BUT

Fuck a UC Berkeley. I'm going to art school.

neptune, apply to Parsons

you'd probably like it here.

expect me in a couple years. lemme git sitchiated.

[jeepster]

well, I'd say come here from the get-go: Foundation year puts you back @ year 1 regardless of what you've done before. My suitemate is supposed to be a senior next year and is a freshman right now because he transferred into Parsons. I'm not in Parsons but I go to New School and it looks like fun. I'm taking some classes over there next semester anyways.

[neptunecitylocal]

I feel like my head is gonna pop off from sheer anticipation.

My mom would die if I went east for my first year away. She barely let me go to SF. She's also making me live in campus housing for my first year when I have so many other options.

When she gets over herself for my second year, I'm gonna live with my dad.

For my third year---I'm free (essentially) from the parental leash.

Still too far ahead to see what's going on though.
