Sighted

Nearly all of the furniture in the Ohio State University’s Knowlton Hall is on wheels. The mobility of pieces like Herman Miller’s Caper Chair encourages spontaneous collaboration throughout the building, which serves as both an architectural marvel and a learning space for students of the university’s Austin E. Knowlton School of Architecture. Photo: Ian Allen

Hi, this is a great blog. It is one thing to see great style…make that timeless style, but to receive “education” in the process; that is awesome. Keep up the good work!

I never thought of doing an Eames Aluminum Group Chair in green! I love that office – so bright and cheery.

I like these. I just got my Swoop Chair (love at first sight) and would love to share a pic or two with you. Maybe you’d want to include it in your future posts…

I guess it’s helpful to have been in business for so many years when TV shows are looking for iconic furniture styles from way back in the 60s!

I actually featured this kids workspace on my blog, http://minimaldesks.com a few days ago.

The way to a designer’s heart is through images! What a great compilation of the pieces that we love to work with every day.

Fun to see this…we love our Eames sofa but it is at our son’s home on semi-permanent loan.
