_'Big Vitra Sale'


_Tomorrow is the big Vitra sale in Clerkenwell, everything is stupidly reduced (ie. £4000 pieces reduced to £100) thus the reason that people have been camping outside the store since Wednesday. Im after this - The 1946 classic 'Nelson Bench'.

"Introduced in 1946, the Nelson platform bench remains a landmark of modern design. The clean, rectilinear lines reflect designer George Nelson's architectural background and his insistence on what he called "honest" design - making an honest visual statement about an object's purpose. The bench serves as a multipurpose display and resting place in offices, public areas, and homes."

Perfect, wish me luck fighting off those bitches.
