Credenza

December 4th, 2009

Yeah. This is my favorite credenza ever.

I don’t have $6,500 to drop on it, but I was thinking maybe we could DIY something similar. The boy has this “surround” sound system that I can’t stand to look at and I’m tired of staring at all the ugly TV components in the den.

This would be the perfect kind of credenza were you could hide all the ugliness and just slide open the front when in use.

What really got me thinking about this is Blake Dollahite‘s PERFECT house and SPECTACULAR hand built furniture. Look at this custom cabinet lined with cork and built to hold electrical gear.

I want to marry this man. Don’t tell the Boy.

(He knows though…he totally just yelled at me to stop staring at his website).

I picked up this vintage phone bench which is marked “Made in Yugoslavia” at the local Angelview Thrift.

We don’t have a real land line phone (we just use our cell’s) but hey you could still sit and chat here. It’s giving me a ghetto Hans Wegner vibe.

Well hello there. I did my first ever guest blog post for Alek at From The Right Bank to the Left Coast. She’s making the big move to Atlanta, which surprisingly has some fun looking modernism going down. Check it out here.
