Unhappy Hipsters

2010-01-29 17:54:31.228562+01 by Dan Lyke 4 comments

Unhappy Hipsters is snarking at the pictures with people in 'em from modern architecture photography. Since I've been reading a lot of said stuff recently while looking for ideas on the house and on building my workshop, I found this horribly amusing.

I forwarded this link to my sister, who remarked that it reminded her of the dialog from an Ingamar Bergman film.

My house was aspiring to be that minimalistic, tiled, contemporary, gray.

A woman appeared, bringing color and accessories, purple, honey and gay.

Our house is colorful, cluttered and full of whimsical play.

Cats chasing, Art facing, Alice in Wonderland meets Bauhaus in a day.

How does this relate to the "waste to hipness" ratio from the BMI discussion?

Photos to commit suicide to.

I am also reminded of a term from From Bauhaus to Our House, "That room", what Tom Wolfe called the oficial square, white painted room with no decorations and a few pieces of uncomforable furniture. Apparently they are still making it.
