Monday Minis

A corner of the conference room. I can't find the exact chairs, but I found some that capture the spirit of those particular chairs. Plus they cost me next to nothing.

Here's the chair, but like I said, these "official" miniatures cost a fortune. Over $200 per chair, which is ridiculous. These are made for architecture nerds who are obsessed with mid-century modern furniture. It's Marcel Breuer's Wassily chair. (Had to memorize this stuff in my history of interior design classes. I am a repository of mostly useless furniture knowledge.)

Even more ridiculous in price is the chair from House's office (I didn't know if you had this one yet) is the Eames lounge:

Obviously it's not worth spending that much (and I don't know if they're even in scale), but if you didn't know the names before, knowing them might help find something. IDK.

Oh wow, and that's not even exactly the same, plus it's 1:6 scale. I'm working with 1:12 scale. It's pretty amazing though.

The Eames Lounge chair in 1:12 is available for about $40.00 at various mini sites. I've only seen it in black and cream colored though, and I think House's is yellow. I'd been thinking of trying to make it, but it's probably too ambitious for my skill-level. Eventually I'll cave and buy that one, I think.

Thanks for the info.
