One of my long-standing furniture obsessions...(the Togo from Ligne Roset...)
And the lovely Paulistano Armchair from DWR...
Creative, imaginative, funny, intelligent, passionate people. Artists, musicians, designers. Hedonists, rebels, anarchists and anyone else who follows their dreams because the urge is too intense not to.
"Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary." ~Cecil Beaton
"Design is a plan for arranging elements in such a way as best to accomplish a particular purpose." ~Charles Eames
"I may seem to be passionately concerned with the 'hows' of representation, how you actually represent rather than 'what' or 'why'. But to me this is inevitable. The 'how' has a great effect on what we see. To say that 'what we see' is more important than 'how we see it' is to think that 'how' has been settled and fixed. When you realize this is not the case, you realize that 'how' often affects 'what' we see." ~David Hockney
"Congratulate yourselves if you have done something strange and extravagant and broken the monotony of a decorous age." ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
"The creative process is a cocktail of instinct, skill, culture and a highly creative feverishness. It is not like a drug; it is a particular state when everything happens very quickly, a mixture of consciousness and unconsciousness, of fear and pleasure; it’s a little like making love, the physical act of love." ~Francis Bacon
