In a survey to some 100 interior designers, an overwhelming number of votes were tallied to the Eames office suite, with respondents naming the Aluminum Group chair or the Soft Pad chair its “cushioned cousin,” as manufacturer Herman Miller refers to it as their favorite desk chairs.
“There are very few desk chairs that are comfortable and good-looking,” says Frances Merrill of Reath Design, who cast her vote for the lightly padded Aluminum Group seating. The chair’s stylistic versatility must also be counted among its superpowers, insists Johanknecht, who has the Soft Pad iteration in his Los Angeles home office. “The chair is a design icon so classic that [it] mixes really well with other furnishings.”
Much like the city itself, design shopping resources in Los Angeles are fantastically vast and wildly creative. AD PRO asked local experts to share some of their favorite home decor shops, from tried-and-true classics to lesser-known treasures in locations ranging from Venice to Pasadena to Orange County. These businesses’ diverse styles translate to endless opportunities for interior design professionals and enthusiasts alike to explore and be inspired. And as is generally the case with L.A., once you dig in, there’s always more to discover.
“Amsterdam Modern manages to stock the raddest ’60s and ’70s vintage pieces that make you take a second look at profiles you may have passed over in the past. Their seating is really to die for. I always manage to source a perfectly broken-in vintage leather sofa or lounge chair that oozes a relaxed cool charm.” Natalie Myers, Veneer Designs
