Mies Please.

Inspiration Board.

Mid-century modern architecture and furnishings are a favorite of the ladies here at Hip Hostess. The clean, sculptural lines of the works by Mies, Bertoia, Eames, and Saarinen always bring inspiration to us. So today's inspiration board is going to be based around a wonderful Mies van der Rohe building - the Farnsworth House. What is wonderful about this residence is the dichotomy between the structure and it's rural setting. I think that a wedding that takes it's cues from this could be very interesting. Clean, crisp details set in an earthy, organic, Autumnal surroundings. --a
