Have you ever been in a Poggenphl showroom? I feel like I'm in an amusement park when I go into the one on Park Avenue.<br /><br />I'm captivated this stuff too and what's so great about looking back at its roots is that it's easier to see the cultural stuff that resulted in those designs. The events of a given period of time drive design and when you know what to look for it's thrilling. You'll need to find your way to New York for this exhibit.Paul Anaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05777487147630173644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143843667296816868.post-16888625777799470432010-07-07T11:33:48.338-04:002010-07-07T11:33:48.338-04:00I wrote a blog a couple of weeks ago on Poggenpohl...I wrote a blog a couple of weeks ago on Poggenpohl, which is a German manufacturer that was established in Germany in 1892 by Freidemir Poggenpohl who started with white lacquer furniture and then introduced ergonomic work-top heights and storage innovations, ideas which revolutionized kitchens, really. I was taken by their latest designs and wrote about them, but I was also most intrigued with pictures on their site of their earlier designs. I posted one from the very beginning, about 1890 or so, of kitchen cabinets. The whole history of kitchen design fascinates me no end, though. I also came across the Hoosier Cabinet some time ago and was fascinated with it. They had their heyday in the early decades of the 20th century.Josephhttp://www.cft411.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143843667296816868.post-71075757203027214332010-07-07T11:12:24.978-04:002010-07-07T11:12:24.978-04:00Fashion Week!
