Miller me!! Lately I’ve been loving colorful jewelry, very similar to some of the earrings I’ve seen Sherry wear on the blog :)
Claire says
Miller Me! My fav architect of all time is Mies Van der Rohe. I love him for his impact on modern architecture! As a native Chicagoan I grew up driving by his apartment buildings on LakeShore drive–I adore the stark contrast between the open/industrial look of these buildings and their classical next door neighbors. I could go on forever. I love modern architecture and design. I love Herman Miller!

Lindsay says
Miller me!
I’ve always loved Mies van der Rohe… so clean and beautiful. But I was recently in Barcelona, and I don’t think it’s possible to walk away from that city without a profound appreciation for the work of Antoni Gaudi… dude was a GENIUS!
Katie D. says
Miller Me! I’ve coveted the Eames Lounge Chair for decades! Make it happen, Young House Love!

Frances says
Miller Me!!
I’m lucky enough to have a job that requires me to run errands in the MMA’s galleries and I often find myself “shopping” for my apartment! Lately, I’ve become obsessed with this John Belter Sofa. (http://www.metmuseum.org/Collections/search-the-collections/10008781?rpp=20&pg=1&rndkey=20120806&ft=*&deptids=1&what=Furniture&pos=3) This whimsical/impractical design mixed with a bold graphic is totally fun, no? I feel as if this one piece of furniture is entirely the point of shopping in your mind in a museum.

Emily says
Miller Me!
FLW is an idol – I even dressed up as him for school project (and I’m a girl!)
El says
MILLER ME!
As well as greats like Charles and Ray Eames, I am addicted to Raymond Loewy’s contributions to the design world. He really put Industrial Design (and ‘good’ design in general) on the map. So many things we interact with each day have been impacted by his creativity and talent.
Jessica brown says
Miller me! Oh wow!
Jamie says
MILLER ME!!!!!
Amy says
MILLER ME!
still trying to catch my breathe!
Jen says
Miller me! I’ve always admired Richard Serra. His sculptures are awe inspiring.
Krista says
MILLER ME!
I have always admired the architecture of Phillip Johnson.
His use of glass as exterior partitions allows an interior environment set within an ever-changing natural or urban landscape to influence the overall design of the space. As a designer myself, I enjoy change on a daily basis and why not let nature influence a color palette that changes from season to season keeping it fresh.
anna says
“MILLER ME! After viewing the awesome Picasso exhibit at the De Young museum in SF, I have since been fascinated by him and the story of his life.
Andy says
Miller me!
Katie says
MILLER ME!
A couple of years ago we went to the Blue Ridge Folk Art Museum, and they had an exhibit with some local furniture makers. There was the most gorgeous hand carved writing desk made from a solid piece of hardwood. I still keep an eye out for something similar now that we have a house.
Larissa says
Miller me. My favorite designer is my closest friend who can walk into any space and see it from the inside out. It’s her sixth sense.
Valerie Kyzar says
MILLER ME! I have always admired Coco Chanel for her classic and timeless style.
Lauren says
MILLER ME!!!
Lindsay says
MILLER ME!
I love Mies Van der Rohe. We have the same design philosophy “less is more”
Amanda H says
MILLER ME! Frank Lloyd Wright for sure!!!
Keri G. says
MILLER ME!
I have been craving an Eames lounge chair forever! Love!
Nickie says
MILLER ME!
Growing up, my Dad had (and still does to this day) an Eames lounge chair in his office. I always loved to sit in the oversized seat and swing round and round when he wasn’t looking. Not only is it a gorgeous architectural piece, but a lovely bit of nostalgia I’d love to have in my home as well!
Katie B. says
MILLER ME! As an Industrial Designer by schooling, I’ve always loved Eames since our first introduction. I also adore Charles Rennie Mackintosh for his diversity (furniture, graphics, architecture, etc.)
Nicole Joseph says
Miller me!
erin says
Miller me!
One of my favorite designers, architects, and presidents is Thomas Jefferson!

Jennifer says
