I just can't let this Michael Jackson passing thing, well, pass, just yet. Besides the moonwalk, Michael gave us the iconic red leather jacket. In his honor, I wanted to highlight red leather for the home.Yet, after my many minutes a'google, I found that red leather can often appear tragically flawed and/or uncomfortably weird.But at design boner, we prefer to focus on the good in design, on the qualities that elevate acceptable into classic.For these reasons, I, Cardboard, declare all this (and Michael) a Design Boner.
Dude.I can't believe Michael Jackson is dead. And I can't believe I got rid of my Jackson doll. One (g)Love, MJ.
I just read the sad news that Farrah Fawcett passed away this morning. She may have accomplished many things in her short lifetime but the one thing she'll always be remembered for is her guaranteed presence on the bedroom wall of every hetero-boy in the late '70s.In honor of Farrah, the newly anointed angel, let's remember our teenage poster portraits. Whose eyes did you gaze into, while picking out the names of your future children (and horses)? Or maybe it was [insert hottie here]'s mile-long legs that gave you your first lesson in...um...self-design, as it were.My dreamboat of choice was Corey Haim. I loved, loved him - with his big eyes, bigger hair, and squeaky not-quite-a-man voice. Fellow Haim'er, Candid Karina, provided the only image I could find online of the poster that also shared my wall space. Just look past the flash spot and awkward family photo to the gelled and leathered Corey...sigh. The reason for my obsession should be obvious. So tell us all who made you swoon and provide pics and/or links, if you can!
