A lovely few days in Philadelphia last weekend. Pockets of the city seemed to unfold themselves, stoop life has returned, fleeting scents of flora and birdsong everywhere. • • • #citylife #vous #flora #robertventuri #springtime #murals #philadelphia #streetlife (at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPQVmWblKLy/?utm_medium=tumblr

OPEN TODAY 12-4 PM. BACK IN THE BOOKSHOP: GI (GLOBAL INTERIOR) #1 - HOUSES IN U.S.A. (1971) • Scarce first issue from 1971 of this now classic 1970's architectural series, the great GI (Global Interior) from Tokyo, Japan. One of the finest interior architecture journal series ever published, GI "The Series of Global Interior" came from the producers of the highly esteemed GA (Global Architecture), GA Document, GA Houses, etc. architectural publications.GI was produced throughout the 1970's in a total of ten volumes. Each large volume highlighted a selection of architectural projects by renowned international architects, some volumes focusing on a specific architect entirely, and highlighted their work for houses and domestic spaces. • Beautiful architectural photography of house interiors, exteriors and room details of living spaces, along with texts (mostly in Japanese) and floorplans/elevation drawings make up the profiles on each featured building or environment. The visual generosity of these handsomely designed and printed journals (each more a book than a magazine) make them a treasure for any architecture or interior design enthusiast or collector. • Edited and Presented by Yukio Futagawa • #1 contents include: MLTW/Moore and Turnbull (Caygill House, McComber Houses, Hines House, Reid House, Sea Ranch Condominium); Joseph Esherick (Bermak House, Cary House); John Lautner (Malin House); Edward A. Killingsworth (Case Study House No.25); Craig Ellwood (Rosen House, Daphne House); Charles Eames (Eames House); Herbert Greene (Greene House); Bruce Goff (Price House); Eero Saarinen (Miller House); Crites and McConnell (Crites House A, Crites House B); Charles W. Moore (Moore House); Edward L. Barnes (Country House); John M. Johansen (Taylor House); Richard Meier (Smith House, Saltzman House); Paul Rudolph (Hirsch house); Marcel Breuer (Gagarin House, Stillman House); Robert Venturi (Mrs. Venturi House)... • One preserved copy in original slipcase in the bookshop today and via our website. • #worldfoodbooks #globalinterior #yukiofutagawa #charlesandrayeames #marcelbreuer #robertventuri #paulrudolph #richardmeier #eerosaarinen #craigellwood #brucegoff #mltw #1971 (at WORLD FOOD BOOKS)

Past/ present, highbrow/ lowbrow, grandma style/ street culture, and "decorated ducks", to quote critic Hal Foster. "Furniture" as postmodern "art" from the 70's to the present. 🪑🪑🪑⠀ ⠀ @virgilabloh on his 2019 show, "Efflorescence"- "To me, design always has the inherent idea of being a bridge from the past, with an eye towards the future." @dezeen adds, "As a 'reflection of our generation', the designs have been spray-painted with the designer's brightly coloured free-hand markings, reminiscent of city graffiti in a bid to evoke 'street culture'" 🌆🛹🚧 ⠀ @moma on Robert Venturi/ Denise Scott Brown's 1979 "Queen Anne Chair", "Blending historic and modern styles with references to high and low culture, Venturi and Scott Brown reduced the elegant shape of an eighteenth-century Queen Anne chair to a flattened silhouette in bent plywood. They also designed the “Grandmother” pattern covering the form, which is based on a mass–produced floral tablecloth owned by the grandmother of one of their employees." 💐🧸🖼 ⠀ #urban #streetwear #grandmastyle #postmodernism #everythinginquotes #virgilabloh #denisescottbrown #queenannechair #robertventuri #furniture #chairs⠀ ⠀ ⠀ https://www.instagram.com/p/CDeo5a_FBAg/?igshid=1c4xh1zqc5yg3
