So a long overdue post …. Reasons why New York is silly crazy.
Ariane (my über bright and beautiful architect sister) and I were popping out of her place in NYC to run errands about 2 weeks ago when, lo and behold, what is discovered in the trash …. (no we weren’t sorting, they were delicately placed on top of the pile of smelly refuse, begging (screaming!) to be taken to a new home) .... but WASILY CHAIRS!!!!! This is not a joke!! I repeat NOT a joke.
Marcel Breuer made the chairs in 1926 at the Bauhaus. He named them the 'Wassily' chairs after his friend the painter Wassily Kandinsky. Now, without an architect sister you may not know all of that, however, you would have walked by and been smitten by how cool these chairs are.
Just in case you were trying to be a smart ass and diss on the chairs, here’s a wiki link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wassily_Chair
Now you want to know what we did, don’t you?
