(12/26/07) The process for a signature scent begins with an extensive interview about favorite colors, foods, artwork and hobbies. The client then smells more than 100 essential and perfume oils Han keeps in amber glass bottles in an apothecary-style cabinet. After each whiff, the bottle is categorized depending on how much -- or whether -- the scent is liked. After further nasal "editing" sessions, she takes out her droppers and Pyrex beakers and begins blending and bridging the fragrance, then decants it into square flacons imported from France. The bottle then is nestled inside a hand-made matchbox-like paper box. Han also includes a written "profile" of the scent, a sort of descriptive poem detailing the top, middle and base notes and elaborating on the specific ingredients. The actual recipes, though, are stashed in a shoe box, so she can replicate the scent when she gets requests for refills -- a frequent occurrence.See less

(12/23/07) In a 1956 cover story in Time magazine, Eero Saarinen said he was designing a collection to "clear up the slum of legs in the U.S. home." Later that year, he completed his Pedestal Table and Tulip Chair Collection and obliterated the "slum" by creating a cast aluminum base inspired by a drop of high-viscosity liquid. These pieces went into production in 1957, and to celebrate their 50th Anniversary, every table ordered between August 1, 2007 and August 1, 2008 will ship with an anniversary medallion and a commemorative edition of the certificate of authenticity. Also honoring the occasion is a new base color, platinum, which, like the black or white options, has an abrasion-resistant rilsan finish. Pedestal Tables come in a variety of materials (veneer, marble and laminate) and sizes (side, coffee and 35"-96" dining tables). Each piece is stamped with the KnollStudio logo and the designer's signature. This table is manufactured by Knoll¿ according to the original and exacting...See less

(12/23/07) Richard Misrach, one of today's most prolific contemporary masters, is internationally renowned for his carefully considered, beautifully rendered epic works. In On the Beach, a lavishly produced, oversized monograph that features the long-awaited publication of this spectacular series, Misrach hones in on our delicate relationship to the sea.Light, color, and form are crucial components in Misrach's explorations of difficult subjects. In this body of work he uses a gorgeous, slowly shifting color palette gleaned from changes in depth and tide; abstract patterns of waves and rippling water, and beaches both empty and cluttered. Throughout the series, Misrach carefully balances the minutiae of human gesture against the massive scale of the sea. In some images, a lone figure floats in a liquid field of brilliant turquoise--or in others, lies beached and partially buried. The details in the images are frequently ambiguous. Are the figures relaxed or drained of life? Cavorting in the surf...See less
