Get a book from the library

Don't it's autist tier. Plus you don't want to deal with yellow foam dust and 50 year old fiber glass.

You can have a nice place with everything from ikea/Amazon

>>10983956

Don't.

You will always remain a pleb.

It's too expensive.

You will never leave entry-tier Eames.

You will never advance to the upper echelon that consists of strange 80's prototypes made by a variety of Italian designers and were never published.

>tfw sitting on one of these right now

ripoff nittori version though

>>10983985
B-but I might be able to afford it soon.

>>10984108

Buy design compendiums then from Taschen & Könneman & etc...

And lose yourself in the rabbit hole.

But always remember:

What's the name of this kind of chair? I want one for my room.

>>10984461

It's the I_can't_google by I_know_nothing_from_design

Pretty obscure.

>>10984110
This.
Just buy a bunch of TASCHEN books, they're pretty fucking cheap and very resourceful for beginners.
This is basically how I got into architecture and art, just reading every book they has on the subject and then looking elsewhere for more specifics

Why do they do this? Are they autistic?

Bump for knowledge

>>10986146
Because people will pay for scarcity.
It's annoying but they wouldn't be in a position to make calls like that if they weren't trying to make the most money possible

Chicks love a nicely furnished house/apartment and quality goods can become family heirlooms. Do it for the kids.

Need a fa desk chair that's easy to clean and not cold to the butt.

>>10984461
Eames DSR, I have 15 of them....real ones

If you come pick them up I'll give you a few free if you promise not to immediately flip them (since they're valuable)

>>10986784
Literally everyone in America has a useless degree that they got with their parents money.

If Sanders gets his way everyone in America can get a free degree in a service econmy where everyone just cooks each other hamburgers for minimum wage which is 1 millon dollars an hour

And hamburgersare 1.75 trillion each

It's Sieg trying to seem intelligent, when we already know he paid his way through school.

>>10983956
you checked out http://www.hay.dk before?

>>10988217
Knowledge economy's only work if there is a disparity in the knowledge

That is the entire point of having that knowledge in the first place

Otherwise it's not marketable.

Which is what happens when all college degrees suddenly lose accredation and is merely a technical certofocate

yeah I've said this before, if you're even slightly into design, not even interior, you'll see that Eames and Barcelona chairs are cool but extremely over played.

>>10989725
How often have you actually seen barcelona chairs in person? On the internet everything seems overplayed.

>>10989708
I think to really appreciate it you have to know these production techniques as laminating & bending wood and casting with poly-resins were really new at that time. They used these new techniques and made some really tasteful designs with it that could easily be mass-produced.

>>10983956
this chair is so fuken ugly

>>10987806
east coast or left coast?

>>10990041
it's everywhere in NYC and it's incredibly overplayed. I feel as if I see them in hotel lobbies all the time

>>10990727
Candyland, because Sieg lives in his parent's basement.

>>10990745
yeah well thats the thing with half century old classic industrial designs

places of business utilize them and shit because they're widely accepted as being aesthetically pleasing and shit nigger

barcelona chairs, handkerchief chairs and eames too common for your ass?

then why the fuck don't you own any

>>10990814
