as long as you're not inspecting people's pants for exposed rivets before they sit down...

I'd love a pair as well but I'd have the exact same mindset as Broke, so they'd probably just end up sitting in my bedroom and not being seen, which sucks.

hahha, i totally would notice if people had rivets.

Hey Broke,

Where did you snag these nearby? This is something I wanna get into as a hobby pretty soon but I just don't know where to acquire beat to fuck pieces. Any advice, even via pm, is appreciated.

[shufon]

^I would like the same info if possible, would really appreciate that.

Also, has anybody here ever sat in a Herman Miller Coconut Chair? I love the aesthetic of them and thinking about copping but it looks like it has the potential of being completely uncomfortable.

[halomunkey]

this is by far one of my favorite threads on the board... Some really great ideas in here. Does anyone have any preferred or favorite interior decor focused stores, aside from Ikea? Something like MollaSpace? Looking for cool misc stuff, decor, etc...

I really like bo concept designs. But I guess I'm more into function though.

Got this in black:

and my parents almost bought this in white for the new house but decided it was too modern for them :

both look way cooler irl tho.

boconcept has shit customer service. I ordered a rug from them once, 11 weeks and still wasnt delivered. They wouldnt give me a refund, so I had amex fight them. Just google boconcept customer service and you will see lots of complaints.

Scott, Shufon,

craigslist. The best deals were the orange chairs. $60 each. The rocking chair I only paid $100 for.

You have to be quick to e-mail the person, and willing to travel long distances to pick them up.

[TheBrokeDJ]

some others are on ebay. You can get the upholstered ones cheap on ebay, if you're willing to remove the upholstery. However, there is a chance that the legs are screwed through the chair. You can ask the seller to check this, but in my experience they're almost always wrong.

[kvc06]

Sometimes it isn't the legs being screwed into the chair, but just a few holes drilled to allow air to escape under the upholstery

[TheBrokeDJ]

^ mmm yes that's right. they're usually in a row of three.

How do you guys feel about the LCM?

I like it, but part of me feels like I won't be satisfied and still will want the LCW.. I can get a LCW for 6 or a LCM for 450

To me LCM just doesn't look as special, I understand it is because it was the first of it's kind and the original, but LCW just has a certain aura to it (channeling Walter Benjamin)

[Desi]

for me the LCW is so much nicer looking but I would pick up an LCM instead. LCM is just safer and looks like it will easily flow in a room setup while the LCW demands more strict modernist guidelines. Now if I had the chance to go all out and make a near dream room it would have LCW's over an LCM. if you get what I am trying to say.

I'm looking for some good vintage furniture such as a coffee table, couch and table? Any suggestions on what to look for? I am looking for something modern and simple. Thanks for the help.

Look wut I got... more pics when it comes in

[sneekylyric078]

Just glad to be back on sufu...my original account got deleted a few months ago...Someone should post their storage solutions

[Desi]

great buy Kvc. Put it to good use!

[kvc06]

Thanks man! It's honestly more of an investment for the future when I get my own place(as in condo, house, or long term apt with no roommate), it'll be hanging out in my room with the rest of my collection that's overtaking the space now.

[skiniks]

dope, man. eBay find?

[kvc06]

Yes sir, I randomly messaged a seller who deals with tons of HM stuff and asked if she had any, she did!

[skiniks]

Sometimes it isn't the legs being screwed into the chair, but just a few holes drilled to allow air to escape under the upholstery

if I recall correctly the holes were actually for injecting the foam underneath the upholstery.

[kvc06]

That would also make good sense

[kvc06]

next up... ltr (wire base table) for next to the lcw..

always a more to cop concept

(not my pic)

my room back home, the aeron is the best chair I've ever sat in

Edited November 13, 2011 by xdfjdkz

[kvc06]

^ looks great, I personally don't find the aeron and similiar chairs visually appealing at all, but I'm sure that's not really the point..

New LCW

Now I just need to find some art for when I return home from school.

[mr.invincible]

^ how do you wack off? i find it awkward but clean layout.

[xdfjdkz]

natural lighting is my first priority when looking for apts, so having an entire wall as a window like that would be ideal. i see there's blinds for fap time

so yesterday I went to Ikea for the first time and they had some really good stuff. I really liked their closets, one day I'll buy one one, one day.
