Mid-Century Modern Design: Eames and Tolix Marais Chairs

Mid-century modernism is a movement encompassing a style of architecture, furniture, and graphic design that dominated the middle of the 20th century. Perfectly exemplifying mid-century modern furniture, the Eames and Tolix Marais chairs have become synonymous with this design movement. These styles are still sought after today, due to both their iconic look and influential history.

Home is where the heart is...

Home is where the heart is...

If you haven't been to the 'hood lately, here are images of the current art installation in our window display. The paper houses were painted red to form a giant heart. They may look familiar to you if you recall the Communi-Tree House displayed over the recent holiday as part of the "Joy of Creativity" campaign.

Shades of L.A. Architecture

The SS15 video campaign for Belgian brand, Komono was shot in the beautiful Sheats Goldstein Residence designed by legendary architect John Lautner in Los Angeles.
