If this spaceage lounge isn’t showing up on this page it’s well worth the visit to Flickr to see the retro-goodness in all its glory.  I especially want the chairs.

Wednesday Night Photo Post: "Big Alex" by David Adickes


“Big Alex” by David Adickes, originally uploaded by Mr. Kimberly.
 

While hoping to visit the Texas Junk Company (closed until Sept 6th or 7th, can’t remember) I saw this on the corner of Mason and Hyde Park Blvd. Picture Plus is hosting this David Adickes sculpture.

Loving that every street in Houston is viewable on Google Maps street view. That’s how I confirmed the exact location, with a view of the building before the addition of phone and business sign.

Why I don’t have to remember a thing now that Google does it for me.
