Laura Sinnwell says
“MILLER ME!” My uncle was a great artist, drawing beautiful portraits that really captured the spirit of the person who was sitting for him. I’m trying to convince my parents and a few other family members to part with one of his pieces so I can also enjoy his artwork on the walls of my new home.

Miller Me!
I don’t have a specific designer, per say, but I like contemporary style with a dash of mid century modern thrown in, so an Eames chair would be so awesome…

Liz says
Miller Me!!!
I am a grad student studying US history with an emphasis on pop culture. I had the awesome experience of writing a reseach paper on mid century homes in my native Los Angeles and fell in love with Pierre Koenig. He is responsible for Case Study house 22- which is a breaktaking glass home overlooking LA from the Hollywood Hills. swoon.
Kiersten says
MILLER ME! I’m always impressed with people who can put a statement piece like these in a room and make it fit in with the other collected-over-time things. I’m up for the challenge. :)
Dustin says
Miller Me!
There are a lot of actual material things that I would love to have in my home, but what I would love more than any of those would be the ability to sit down to dinner with George Nelson. His book, “How To See” forever changed me as a designer and I think about that book almost every day. I would love to have Mr. Nelson to dinner to talk about design, the man made world v. nature, and his thoughts on where we are today.
Britta says

I’m still learning what I like design-wise. It turns out that the ranch homes that draw me in with their arhitecture are in the Eichler style.

MILLER ME!
nathan says
Miller Me!
I’ve always admired the work produced by the eames office. but as is the case with many of the modern masters, the mass market that much of their work was designed for can no longer justify the cost of their designs turned icons. but with this give-away, one of us will be a proud owner…
