"If good design is a balance of aesthetics and utility, the craft peaked in the years between 1940–1970. This era of modernism hit the design sweet spot: functional beauty." Indeed.

I don't know if I'd want it in purple like Jason's teacher, but Id hook up my office with a chair like that…

Oh man, I had a 5th grade teacher back in… let's see 1987ish that had one of those crazy things as his desk chair. He was also really into the color purple and had one of those computer things that he named "Puter". If I recall he had like a puffy mullet curl too. I'm going to have glorious dreams of fonder times of awkward adolescence tonight. Thanks for the memories.
