Great pics, really nice for sparking cool ideas to inject in our own spaces.

Leather is a tricky thing to smooth out from my own research... even the paint-on type finishes aren't so smart because they will probably rub off on your clothes. Maybe it just needs cleaned? I've used lexol products with great success, the cleaner is great and the conditioner really made my worn leather soft and a slightly darker, rich look. If you're set on dying I've seen kits, but I've been afraid to try them... personally, I like the un-even leather look as long as it's not obviously stained and gross. If it were me, I'd leave the natural wear as is - even the frame finish, and just fix the structural. Good luck!

Great timing! I was just thinking I need to tailor the shirt I'm wearing today!

Fantastic examples! I've been thinking of this for a while now, and your pics might push me into action now.

Avallant - contact your nearest Herman Miller dealer, but not a dwr or showroom type place... direct from HM, they are available in probably over 100 different colored leathers.

I suspect that is actually a hand-drawn logotype from the looks of it, but I know of a somewhat similar font... called 'Sweden' that I've used before for the same effect.

That is really fantastic! Too bad I'm far away.

Xbox live's current delivery system is really solid... despite the movie selection being geared to 13-17 year olds! This is excellent news!

Oh, and folks should lighten up! AT should be fun and it's always seems to steer harsh to often. None of us would design our own spaces identically to each other, so why should we be so harsh with others personal choices? I don't see any dead baby seals in there... so no REAL reasons to get worked up.

Me, me, me!
