Description

loungestoel La ChaiseCharles en Ray Eames ontwierpen de elegante loungestoel La Chaise in 1948 voor een wedstrijd van het Museum of Modern Art in New York, 'the International Competition for Low Cost Furniture Design'. Ze haalden hun inspiratie bij het beeldhouwwerk "Floating Figure" van Gaston Lachaise. De lounge stoel is sindsdien uitgegroeid tot een icoon van organisch design. De naoorlogse vraag naar goedkope woningen en inrichtingsontwerpen motiveerde de wedstrijd.

Charles en Ray Eames ontwierpen de elegante loungestoel La Chaise in 1948 voor een wedstrijd van het Museum of Modern Art in New York, 'the International Competition for Low-Cost Furniture Design'. Ze haalden hun inspiratie bij het beeldhouwwerk "Floating Figure" van Gaston Lachaise. De lounge-stoel is sindsdien uitgegroeid tot een icoon van organisch design.

De naoorlogse vraag naar goedkope woningen en inrichtingsontwerpen motiveerde de wedstrijd. Zes teams kregen elk een beurs van vijfduizend dollar, en de ontwerpers werkten ook samen met 'technologen'. Het Eames Office werkte bijvoorbeeld samen met ingenieurs van de University of California in Los Angeles.

De door het Eames Office ingediende ontwerpen waren voor meubels gemaakt van gestanst aluminium of staal. Charles schreef: “Metaalstempelen is de techniek die synoniem is met massaproductie in dit land, maar 'aanvaardbare' meubelen in dit materiaal zijn opvallend afwezig. Door gebruik te maken van vormen die de positieve aard van de stempeltechniek weerspiegelen in combinatie met een oppervlaktebehandeling die warmteoverdracht, het geluid dempt en aangenaam aanvoelt. We denken dat het mogelijk is om metalen meubels te bevrijden van de negatieve vooringenomenheid waaraan ze hebben geleden.”

Bestaande uit twee gelijmde glasvezelschalen, een verchroomd onderstel en natuurlijke eikenhouten poten, vertoont de stoel een fascinerende elegantie en maakt hij een breed scala aan zit- en ligposities mogelijk. De Eames La Chaise is tijdens het leven van Charles en Ray nooit verkocht. Het bleek te duur om te produceren; hun Fauteuil-ontwerp, waarmee ze aan dezelfde wedstrijd deelnamen, won echter een prijs en werd met groot succes in glasvezel geproduceerd.

Pas in 1996 begon de oude Eames-partner, Vitra International, met de productie en distributie van de La Chaise als antwoord op de publieke belangstelling en vraag. Tegenwoordig dient de stoel als een al lang gevestigd icoon van organisch design.

not bad
Format: Kindle
I loved the plot of this book. The characters just didn’t have a lot of depth. The connections and “love” just weren’t communicated very well in the writing. The author didn’t write the sweet psycho trope very well at all either. Lachlan was just a mess of a character.

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas. But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way. Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

A good read
Format: Kindle
A good read, just fluffy cuteness, no antagonism. I like all the characters. It could have used another round of editing however, glanfds being one error that cracked me up, and my personal pet peeve was that the author kept using the word fill instead of feel, which I promise you are not interchangeable haha, but it's definitely better than the majority of books I read on here mistake-wise.
