Is the Lockheed Lounge made from parts of a Lockheed airplane?
Comment by Kevin April 29, 2009 @ 5:05 pmI will have to give my friend Marc a call and ask him. If you look at his website (www.marc-newson.com) you can look at his airplace and space craft designs. I think you would find his stuff interesting Kevin
Any news from France?

Comment by Damon Garrett April 30, 2009 @ 4:20 amNot so sure about that “memories” cabinet. I would have trouble adjusting to the crooked drawers! LOL
Anyway, it was great meeting you Kelli at the show. Let’s keep in touch! Linda P
