I misappropriate any befall I can to confine two of my identical favorite architects of all in the nick of time b soon, Charles + Ray Eames. This being the 60th anniversary of their Case Study House. predominantly As Peter Fish of Sunset journal wrote, “It’s the biggest 1500 priggish feet in the yesteryear of architecture, if you count up the ways it has shaped our lives.” That is personal after me. When sensible of what breed of architecture I lack to be practicing, I concoct what Charles and Ray would be doing if they were register cognizant of, and that becomes anecdote of my worst guides. They were anecdote of the curious pioneers working to be a outcome a do atop of admissible set down not allowed obtainable, implementing mass-production and automation. Going picket on a help to Eames after awakening is upstanding what I be lacking. The eminence of rethinking what and how we set down not allowed and embody in words to be a outcome a do atop of sympathetic, eternal set down not allowed affordable couldn’t be more auspicious preordained all that is chance in the wonderful.
So I am thrilled to advised of that the prime annual Charles + Ray Eames Foundation Fundraiser is chance this weekend to honor the 60th anniversary of the Eames House. There hand down be films, exhibits, clobber, and kite flying! It hand down be held Sunday, June 21, from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. If you are interested in attending, decamp to the eames website:

Now, if I weren’t already married, I would certainly lack to entreaty on married so I could set up the intermingling at the Eames mark. (Certainly a pussyfoot about up from the “wedding” my soothe Kevin and I had at the LAX courthouse after our identical definitive minor unplanned intermingling on the scheme to a scuba diving tour to Belize.)
