Furniture, furnishings, and interior design

Re: Furniture, furnishings, and interior design



Do any of you guys know some online stores that carry knockoffs of designs? It's not that I don't appreciate original designs but my god... the prices are insane!</P>


More specifically... I'm looking for this sofa but... at a tenth of the price or something like that (on Moss the damn thing is $11.5k!!!!!!)</P>


</P>


</P>


Or something like it... I can find Wassily chairs on ebay for $150-200 each which is significantly more palatable than the ridiculous prices charged at design within (er...more like never) reach. I'm just hoping for something equivalent for larger items as well! I need to furnish (completely furnish) my apartment in San Antonio within a reasonable budget haha.</P>

Only the knock-offs of famous modernist stuff - barcelona chairs, mies van der rohe lounge, etc...

Lots of retailers have been touting their versions of this
sofa for years - there are quite a few variations on the market now.
Most only lower the back and don't have the side-lifting action, but you get
what you pay for:

</p>

Room &amp; Board has a really cheap one ($700! Less than CCP shoes!) with a tri-back adjustment:

</p>


The Door Stoor has one that's fairly palatable: http://doorstorefurniture.com/sleek.html
</p>

</p>

</p>


CB2 has a pillow version: http://www.cb2.com/family.aspx?c=102&amp;f=3036 although I can't figure out their code to give you a preview.</p>

</p>

Hope these help.</p>

I love those foldable ones, wish we had room/use for something like that :P</P>

Prices are good. (Still trying to figure out if this is spam or not [*-)]).

Re: Furniture, furnishings, and interior design

That was my first post on the stylezeitgeist after looting here for a long time and learned a great deal about Cloak/Poell/Cdiem, etc (although still have a lot to learn). I just thought I should start chipping in some contributions. [57]

I actually would recommend White on White if you want the look without the stamp of repro authenticity. I bought my vintage Danish rosewood dining table from them years ago, and they've branched out to making designer replicas. I wonder if they still do vintage MCM?

pretty cool lamp. definitely a great conversation piece. although the shiny cube reminds me too much of a subwoofer.</p>

Re: Furniture, furnishings, and interior design



haha that's a very amusing piece
I wonder if it's safe, with the light hitting the surface so close
interesting design anyway
</p>

[tofu]

Re: Furniture, furnishings, and interior design

looks like the bulb is a good distance from the surface. i don't see why there would be a problem.

[gius]

Re: Furniture, furnishings, and interior design



oh just that in time, the bulb and lampshade will heat up
and the surface the light hits will heat up</p>

anyway it's probably made of a special material</p>

Re: Furniture, furnishings, and interior design



Looking for this Artemide Nessino Lamp in grey. Couldn't find any US stockist/US online that has 'em. Spending more from shipping abroad is the last option. Any leads greatly appreciated.</p>
