Opus Shelving
Shelving that'll transform your books into a piece of art! Product description: The inspiration for Opus Shelving (2000) came to designer Sean Yoo during a trip to Pompeii. While walking through the streets of the archaeological site, the designer was struck by a Roman wall-building technique known as “opus incertum,” which is characterized by a distinctively erratic combination of blocks. Yoo went on to observe this layout of elements elsewhere, from dried-up lake beds in the deserts of Las Vegas to the sidewalks of Los Angeles. He took this familiar pattern and adapted it into shelving that’s made from 100% recyclable expanded polypropylene – the same material chosen for motorcycle helmets due to its light weight and durability. Opus units can be stacked (strong double-sided tape is included) or set side by side, used against a wall or as a room divider. Opus was chosen by the Italian Ministry of Cultural Affairs and the Design Museum of Milan to be included in the I.DoT 2006–2007, a juried exhibition that selects, certifies and promotes the best of contemporary Italian design for a traveling exhibition. Made in Italy.

2. Wishbone Chair by DWR. Hans J. Wegner designed this chair in 1944, inspired by portraits of Danish merchants sitting in Ming chairs. I love the simplicity of this chair married with the pop of green.

I was hesitant to post his on here because, admittedly, it's RIDICULOUSLY expensive (over $6,00 for fabric and over $11,000 for leather) . But the classic clean and angular design by Arne Jacobsen (originally in in 1956) of the series 3300 has been licensed and reissued by The Republic of Fritz Hansen. So now this two seater sofa is available in various solid and patterned fabrics as well as leather.

Well, I guess my Aeron chair is outdated now. This new task chair from Herman Miller is supposed to be the ultimate in ergonomic design. I just wish the back weren't so ugly. Oh, and that it didn't cost over $1500.00.

Another mid-century modern classic, the Aeron chair never goes out of style. As they are typically seen in black, i think this taupey color is a unique take. I would use one as an occasional chair in the living room.

My living room has got just enough room for a sofa and a love seat. However, I'd prefer to avoid the matchy,matchy stuff. and get two pieces that are architecturally the similar, but different colors.
