    I’ve always wanted an Eames, but it’s totally out of my price range. This would be a dream come true. :)

    Miller Me! Those chairs are beautiful!

    I love a variety of works, though I do like some of Warhol’s art work. More than him, though, is that photographer famous for black and white photos. I”m completely blanking on the name right now, though.

    My dad had the classic Eames lounge while I was growing up, and only now am I starting to realize how great his taste in furniture is! 8.08 is also my birthday, so here’s hoping it’s my lucky day :)

    The designer I admire (and adore) although there are many is Eva Zeisel – she worked her entire life trying to design for the general public – her furniture and pottery was so beautiful that it was very expensive – it was not until she in was in her 90s that Crate and Barrel started producing her designs at a price that the average consumer can afford. Her pottery is BEAUTIFUL! If you haven’t seen it before you should check it out!
    I dream of one day owning an original Eval Zeisel, but for now I am content with my Crate and Barrel pieces!

    i’m going to have to say anything that is mid-century lately….the simple, clean lines, the colors, the wood….if I could own any artist’s work, it would have to be a chagall or a picasso drawing!

    MILLER ME! I wouldn’t call her classic, but my icon is Kelly Wearstler. I’ve stayed in a few of the hotels she’s done and wish I would be so bold in my own home!

    Miller Me! It feels good to finally admit – I’m obsessed with all things midcentury. Always have been. Art, music, furniture, architecture. I’m fairly certain that as long as I could take my Android I’d be perfectly comfortable in 1955 :)

    MILLER ME! I’ve always loved FLW, especially since I’m from WI and have seen many of his designs.

    (Holy crapola, there’s a Herman Miller STORE?!)

    I’ve always love Monet. Unfortunately can’t really afford one of those! Ha! But something in that similar fashion gets my heart pitter-pattering.

    Also love me a good Michael Kors purse but I’m pretty sure that wasn’t what you meant. Haha!

    Miller Me! I know nothing about designers, so I can’t even answer that question. I’m a big fan of you guys though, and I’d love a YHL original piece :)

    MILLER ME! I have been seriously drooling over Eames for months since we started redoing the house in mid century. I cannot imagine winning something like this and being able to have Eames in my home! oh my…someone is going to get very lucky!

    MILLER ME! Please!!! And if I could hang a famous artists painting above an Eames chair, I’d choose something by Paul Klee.

    I love the historic designers of the classic Craftsman style — on display all over my neighborhood.
