All to often the mid century modern miniature projects end up looking like an architect's scale model rather than a fine miniature. Or it ends up looking like a child's modern dollhouse full of plastic. <br /><br />Of course your work always looks like fine miniatures ;-).<br /><br />Architects take themselves very seriously but rarely realize they are saying the same thing as previous generations did. The justifications of how their design will change and improve a persons life and even society as a whole can be found in the writings of other architects writing about entirely different styles from all the ages. <br /><br />Basically the patrons and consumers of architects' and designers' products either finds it a mental relaxation or stimulant to live with less is more or more is more. <br /><br />We have just endured a decade where desireable design was all about swoopy curves just to have them. All to often they were clumsy and ugly with little function to the form, Leming like designers were following the crowd over the cliff in a personal suicide. I am glad Apple used a good designer for I-Pods and it started a trend to return to classic simplicity of design lines.Karin Corbinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14558132883050492387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5032076215768268246.post-70032804317632809832012-02-16T22:08:03.044-08:002012-02-16T22:08:03.044-08:00This table is divine!
