An MCM-filled Easter Weekend in LA (slideshows)

Andria and I spent Easter weekend in Los Angeles seeing family and some really great examples of mid-century modern design and architecture.  Even though I was born in the Bay, I grew up in Los Angeles in a cool little neighborhood known as Ladera Heights.  Ladera is located on the west side of LA, West of La Cienega and North of Centinela to give you an idea.  The neighborhood was mostly developed in the 50’s and 60’s and features some incredible mid-century modern architecture usually found…See More

Suspicious Activity or Bad Salesman?

Hi Neighbors:Tonight (2/7/12) I came home from dinner around 8:45pm and there was a "salesman" waiting for me at the front door.  He immediately started a show and tell about a product that would clean my dirty tires.  I was suspicious, told him I wasn't interested, and he walked down the hill.At best, he may indeed be a real salesman (with very bad judgment).  At worst, he did (or would have done) something illegal.  I didn't notice anything wrong with my house, so I don't know what his…See More

Fireplace Embers Set Roof Ablaze

122811

Alameda County firefighters on Friday quickly brought a rooftop fire under control at a home on Langdon Court near Lake Chabot Road. The smoky fire was ignited by embers from the fireplace around noon.

Alameda County firefighters quickly extinguished a smoky fire that broke out on the roof of a home in the 19700 block of Langon Court around noon on Friday.

A family of four fled the house after neighbors alerted them. Alameda County Fire Battalion Chief T.J. Welch said burning embers from a just-lit fire in the fireplace apparently touched off the blaze.

Four fire engines, a truck, a heavy rescue vehicle and about two dozen firefighters put the fire out in less than 20 minutes.

I don’t normally post things like this on the blog, but I thought this chair was ridiculous and awesome all at the same time!

Living with Mies Van Der Rohe

A fabulous interactive feature interviewing residents of the townhomes of Lafayette Park in Detroit. The complex was designed by a trio of world-class designers: Ludwig Hilbersheimer as urban planner, Alfred Caldwell as Landscape Designer and Mies Van Der Rohe as architect. Lafayette Park is arguably one of the best examples of successful multi-complex housing schemes in North America.
