I fell in love with the Eames Plastic Molded Armchair by Herman Miller, but I cannot afford the real Herman Miller chair, so I went to a local furniture and interior store, Informa in the Gandaria City Mall and got a replica. By the way, Gandaria City Shopping Mall is one of my favorite shopping malls in Jakarta. It’s nice and have many brands, but kind of chill and not as crowded as other malls. The replica Herman Miller Eames chair cost me about US$80. I decided to buy it because chairs create the mood of the room and it’s not heavy, so packing and shipping it to our next post should be easy. Now I’m looking at another Herman Miller Eames replica chair because I like it very much.
BEFORE
This is the photo taken exactly 2 years ago with my Canon PowerShot IS 3S. I feel like it sometimes took better photos especially indoors than my current Canon EOS Rebel T3. Interesting.
AFTER
I realized how much stuff we have accumulated in the past two years. Granted we have another addition, a baby boy, who joined our family this past February, but still I feel like I managed to clutter our house in the past two years.
When you look closely around the middle area of the book shelves, you might wonder what that white basket is about. I purchased this organizer basket at Cayenne, one of my favorite stores in Jakarta. I use it to organize baby items. I used to have the Cayenne white basket in the pack and play bassinet just like in the photos which I use as a changing table still now. Now my son moves so much it has become dangerous to keep a basket with some stuff that we don’t want him to touch on the bassinet, so I put it on a book shelf.
Looking at and comparing my old pictures with new ones, I realized that we have accumulated a lot in the last two years. I would like to get rid of items in general that we won’t need any more. Decluttering my home is definitely my next project…
Oh my! I think i’m gonna buy it for my studio! Thanks for the info Kaho!
You’re welcome!
The interesting part of this post for me is your baby boy. I know that you took photos of the interior but he looked at the camera all the time, even when you took photo from behind, he still look at your camera. So cute!
I’m glad you noticed him! It cracks me up that he’s such a rubberneck!
Dear friend, i love your post on the eames daw chair.. I’m looking for replicas Barcelona chair, do you happen to know where is selling in jarkata? Tried finding them in a while but cannot find it.. Thanks in advanced!
Awww, Barcelona chair! It’s beautiful, isn’t it? Have you checked informa yet? I have never looked for it, so I never noticed and don’t know if they do or not, but if you look for a replica furniture, informa is the store you might want to look in Jakarta. I have a Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Chuzai-Living/129773177074116. I will ask the people who subscribe about the chair. You can like my page there so that you can find out whether there is anyone who will answer my question or not.
Jane, I asked on my Chuzai Living Facebook page about Barcelona chair and one follower asked if I checked Kare Indonesia. http://www.kare-design.com/en/shop28059/home/ Kare Indonesia is in Senayan City on the 6th floor. I don’t know if they have it as I haven’t checked it out myself, but it’s worth checking out!
I found a Barcelona chair replica at Informa at Gandaria City! If you’d like to see the photo, please see my post on my Facebook page posted on January 8, 2013. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Chuzai-Living/129773177074116
