Memorial Day Weekend Adirondack Chair Smackdown!

Date June 1, 2008

Continuing the tradition of weekend backyard improvement, we ordered a pair of Adirondack Chairs from, where else, adirondackchairs.com of course!

Scott Hansen Prints

Date December 26, 2007

A few weeks ago I had come across Scott Hansen’s blog, http://blog.iso5050.com, which I immediately recognized as being right up my alley in terms of design aesthetic. I loved the retro-futuristic set of Soviet cosmonaut prints, the vintage brochures, and the overall sense of style. Luckily for us, he also has a bunch of original […]
