I like stuff...

By Chairfetish

A little about my list. I love great films and good books. There's nothing more spectacular than a truly great film or reading an enthralling tale (save for an amazing bit of furniture design).

1. The Films of Ray and Charles Eames- I've had the pleasure of seeing these on many different occasions. What I love most about them is that they manage to capture the youthful playfulness of Ray and Charles Eames. But also, the films show the optimistic spirit of their designs and manages to ask questions still quite relevant. These films stimulate thought and discussion, they'd be great for my next gathering of design-minded folk.

2. Jonathan Adler: My Prescription for Anti depressive Living- Let's face it, the man is crazy and I love it. My home is monochromatic but I love color and I love using it in projects. There are a lot of people who are afraid to use color, but also afraid to make their home theirs. In my opinion, you're home should say a lot about you and what you like, not what Elle Decor likes. The styles in this book aren't for everyone nor is the more is more approach, however this book will loosen some people up and remind them to have fun with their space.

3. Alessi Blowup- This bowl is one of my favorite pieces in that it brings some much needed chaos to my structured existence. This piece looks amazing with granny smith apples in it.
