It's an Atomic Life!

Imagine you were an astronaut. Where are you going? What have you seen?  Back in the 60s every child's imagination was in space.  We all imagined we would be living the life of the Jetson's by now.  And now with Iphones andGoogle Glass maybe we are there already.

I've recently fallen for Atomic design.  I found this great wall clock that embodies some of the best of atomic. Bright, cherry red color. Lovingly compact design, square and centered.

Imagine you were sitting on the edge of the moon and staring back at earth.

Find the clock.
 

What to Come on My Fan-vacation?

It's so much more fun to go somewhere. I've decided on a road trip.  You get to see lots of scenery. You can make unscheduled stops. You can pack in foods you like to eat. And if you are having a bad time you can just pick up and go.

So I'm going to travel in style and take my brand new Rambler.  I fell for the sales pitch in the ad, "More go, less dough." What's wrong with that? Rambler Ad

And don't you think traveling down the open road with the top down will be fun.  Now all I have to do is pull out the maps and figure out where to go.  Any suggestions? I'm thinking a trip to Niagara Falls might be nice.  I'll let you know as I start to firm up my plans.

Devices and Desires

I've been fascinated by Mid Century gadgets that were the predecessors to the IPad, the IPhone and the HD TV.  Steve Jobs loves his functional forms Take a look at the design that goes into some of these 1960s devices. They're stylin' in their own way.Gadgets on Etsy
