I’m not against the likes of Pottery Barn and Restoration Hardware, they provide some nice furnishings and the convenience is just too damn, well…convenient. However, decorating your entire home with pieces from a store located next to a Cheesecake Factory doesn’t convey much personality. It’s a half-assed effort.
Next time you’re looking to outfit your home or office with some rustic gear, check out Modern 50. Founded by buddies, Dino Paxenos and Eric Ginter, the Virginia based design collective refurbishes old pieces that have been kicked to the curb for a bevy of residential and retail clients.
Where do you think J.Crew and Ralph get all that old shit?
Cool stuff. They’re going to deliver to NYC? How about for rentals? I could see using stuff like this as props for commercial and still shoots.
@David:
Yes…They deliver and specialize in rentals as well. Great for commercial shoots, they recently helped out with the J.Crew campaign.
