very nice - until i saw that awful keyhole brass thing. I adore the clean 602 designs and a fine veneer work, but that item is pilfered from a whole different bulky-items rubbish skip.
Thanks for posting though, i'll forward to my brother who is a furniture- (not computer- ) geek .
Brass Key
I was about to make a similar comment. I like how the retro-designers do things in general, but that fascination with breaking the form in order to stick in an awkward brass key just grates.
Even in the 19th century they had an understanding of this.
Bah!
Judging by the flimsy and inadequate stand I'd say this was inspired not so much by Sputnik as by the Apple G4 Monitor's stand, and will likely be just as unfit for purpose.
I love the wood casing though. Shame it'll end up a pile of matchwood on the floor when someone jostles the table it is standing on after all that cleverness.
The artwork is primo 60s retro though, down to the horrid orange dyework. Orange and black were popular (and above all cheap) options back then, as I found out when I saw my old (Sputnik-contemporary) vaccination records some years ago.
Nice idea
but the finish on some of the woodwork seems a bit sub-par for the era it attempts to mimic.
