"Home on the Range" according to R. Buckminster Fuller

Let architects sing of aesthetics that bring

Rich clients in hordes to their knees

Just give me a home, in a great circle dome

Where stresses and strains are at ease.

T Hearts A+R
The "Woody" shelving system--in high or low--by Danish maker Hay.

We were thrilled to find ourselves this week in Rita Konig's T Magazine column "Inside Out," following her California adventure to Venice and Ojai.

She and pal Honor Fraser arrived just as we were installing the new "Woody" from Hay Denmark. As she writes, she was immediately smitten. We could relate. We fell hard for this collection during our January trip to Paris' Maison et Objet, and the shipment of our order just arrived this last week. We will be bringing the colorful array of chairs, rugs and side tables into A+R Venice in the coming week. They're truly different from anything you've seen.
Besides the "Woody," we've also installed the Plopp stools, which defies reason at first sight, and elicits a smile from everyone who sees it. They're in our window now. This is as much a collector's item as anything, and it certainly adds a point of interest to any room.
