Calling all Mid-century Architecture and Design fans
Hello you wonderful people. I'm currently building what I hope will become a faithful to life model of the Ray & Charles Eames Case Study House #8. I have painsakingly referenced hundreds of photographs to try and achieve this.

I hope to use the space to exhibit as many examples of the designers furtniture, from the Eames Lounge (670) and Ottoman (671) to the humble DSS stacking chair. Along with artworks featured in the real house and artworks by Ray. A number of pieces are already in place but I'd like to shout out to anyone who might be able to help with models they are willing to share to make this an even more wonderful place for lovers of mid-century architecture and design.

Please do drop by and visit the house at Social Community III and take a look as the space begins to take shape.

To give you an idea of the house and furniture designs here are a few links:

My Reviews

Synchronicity

Synchronicity /ˌsɪŋkrəˈnɪsɪti/ - the simultaneous occurrence of events which appear significantly related but have no discernible causal connection. A Genuinely astounding Art Installation, without doubt the best I have experienced in any Virtual World. If I'd walked into the Tate or MoMA and experienced a 10th of this I would have been blown-away!

Stark

Really love this Region! Lots of places to explore and discover including a beach, entertainment areas and an art gallery island. There are even houses available for residents. Mathilda is a great builder with some wonderful ideas, be sure to pick-up a copy of the Stark Magazine from the Vending machines!

Skye ArtSpace

Wonderful Art Space and amazing Particle shows by Lexx and Music by Edison. If you get chance do visit!

Wolfe Reach

Great Grid and friendly people, I will be back :)
