Lol they're not permanent and the lamp is just a dorm remnant, I'll get a better one eventually

[youre sketch]

I had one of those lamps. my girlfriend mad me get rid of it of course

[kvc06]

I think it was like 10 bucks from target, if I didn't spend all my money on the chairs I'd get a new one

got my eyes on a george nelson animal clock tho.. think it's a repro but o well...also think it's for kids lol

[CMYK]

I have a george nelson I might get rid of it though...

I used to have four but had a nervous breakdown and sold them all

for some reason...

I don't understand the hype

fuck pretty awesome....

yeah the light sucks..........

[kvc06]

^ nelson clocks or the bench? or something else

and we established that the light sucks dawg, feel free to cop me a better one

[kvc06]

but really, if anyone has a suggestion for under 50, let me see it

I'm still waiting on my rocker base for the armchair, h8 waiting on things

[skiniks]

don't waste your money on something for $50 unless you find a craigslist steal. just save up and buy something worthwhile that will last.

until then throw them out.

[eat skull]

Fucking dope place man.

Just got my first place. A studio appt downtown. Its small but i like it.

Here are some pics...nothing much to show besides the view haha. Ill post some better ones when the stuff is delivered/installed

[superbeveridge]

Just picked up this vintage vinyl chair with teak legs for my apartment... so happy to have it.

[Kemosabe]

the little book of common sense investing?

what a solid first post my friend.

[aak]

i love that chair, any info on it? how much did you get it for?

[skiniks]

I've got a couple chairs in my collection now: a bertoia diamond, two eames dkrs and a kelly green upholstered shell arm chair. This question is pretty easy to answer myself but do I really want to travel 4 hours to pick up 4 white shells chairs for my kitchen for $180. I mean, it's a steal... but do I really wanna take up 8 hours of my day for this?

[kvc06]

^ hell yeah, that's a crazy steal. A single one can go for up to $150 these days

[skiniks]

yeah, it's just the whole driving a total of 8 hours, across a border, when I could be doing homework type of thing.

[Desi]

do it mane.

[AH+]

Oh man, I just love your place. That issue of Fantastic Man is such a great touch too

[redX]

everything in that living room is so beautifully styled and put together and then that A/C. it's like looking at a beautiful womans face and her having an ugly ass wart on her forehead

[M4TM]

Hah. Funny. I was thinking the same thing about that AC unit.

[Magsåvningsreserven]

maybe that ac is best in class

maybe dj is more interested in function over form

maybe, ffs, maybe

[ifeelasleep]

trying to get one of those racks so i can get rid of my ugly closet, but all the ones ive seen have wheels. there have been some good ones in this thread, did you guys build them or what?

[Desi]

I don't even hate the AC.

^would like to know about the clothing racks too. I chech eBay but there is a lot of garbage ones flowing about. Wish I could have picked up one from Martin + OSA when they were closing.

[DüM]

I remember mike lowery built one out of piping shit

[ejm285]

^

didn't you build one?

thought i saw it on your blog (a long time ago)

nah, I had posted pics of mike lowery and fabulaz's racks they built

[skiniks]

dude just sent me better pics of the 4 white shells. they all look pretty great, quite dirty but they'd clean up well with a wet sanding and some penetrol. I don't think he knows what he has so I'm going to try and get them for $40/each.

[superbeveridge]

i love that chair, any info on it? how much did you get it for?

I paid $150 for it plus I traded an old working black rotary phone. It is from The Arthur in Toronto. It is a cool little vintage furniture and nik nak store a couple doors down from the store I work at. Not much info on it other than it is old and from a company called Simo Interiors out of Quebec Canada. The vinyl and teak legs are almost perfect.

[Desi]

lol I wanted a rotary ever since I saw Cruella de vil have one in 101 dalmatians. Not like the one in the link you posted though.

[conqueror]

I remember mike lowery built one out of piping shit

think this was seenmy (unless lowrey did it too).

[DüM]

that's the one mike lowery made and then fabulaz also posted one he made.
