While I too am a little tired of the MCM interiors featured on AT, I must admit I feel a little differently about this tour. It not only has to do with the home, but even more the choice of MCM pieces. I appreciate how this house tour doesn't look like they went down a checklist of MCM pieces to acquire for validation. Don't get me wrong, early MCM (Bauhaus) is my favorite design period, but not a fan of seeing Eames Rockers with crocheted granny pillows on then.

Still no info on how to purchase?

I like.

I know I'm late to the party, but I can so relate to some of these great stories.

Technically my first is an inherited possible Saarinen Olive velvet Tulipesque lounge chair on a chrome base. My parents bought it at a boutique in Manhattan circa 1970. Didn't appreciate it until I later learned about design.

The first piece I personally purchased was a Noguchi Coffee Table (Black base). My wife "allowed" me to buy it as a 5 year anniversary gift. Go figure :-) It was my first furniture lust object and I had to have it in my home. I loved it's beautiful almost organic curves and the love affair is still strong 8 years later despite a few flings. I need to go take a cold shower now.

I would be forever grateful if anyone knows where to purchase prints outside of a gallery.
