eye for design

Me and the boo went to see I Love You, Man last night. I was expecting it to be funny, but was surprised to see how deliciously styled it was. Every scene is basically a nod to modern architecture and furnishings. Fitting, since it was filmed in and around various parts of Los Angeles, a mecca for midcentury design. Cameos include:

Jonathan Adler Utopia Ceasar/Cornelia Vase

Charles and Ray Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman. Shit is MAJOR

Charles and Ray Eames Armshell Rocker

Also check for Rashida Jones’ super steezy, modern-affluent wardrobe..*think vintage tees paired with little cardigans and PRICEY jeans. All in all, this movie is not only hysterical, but a design head’s wet dream.
