what is urban style?
a little of city living mixed with creative design

Create the downtown urban vibe

Street style  Urban Skater Theme for the home

BROADWAY CHAIR

Take a seat at the bustling intersection of high art and industrial design. Artist Boris Bally rescues discarded street signs and reinvents them as eye-catching, sculptural chairs. The geometric form and angular lines of the pieces harken back to the cold simplicity of Scandinavian modernism. But that is contrasted with the bold, brassy rambunctiousness that comes juxtaposing the bright colors and striking text or graphics inherent in these reclaimed materials. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind work of art, and comes in a unique combination of colors and graphic design. The artist will provide a photographic proof for you to green light your unique chair before shipping. Visually arresting, joyfully playful and fully functional, Ballys work has been featured in prestigious museums across the country, and can now make its home with you. Handmade in Rhode Island. 

Road Tested Chair

Walk - Dont Walk Theres nothing pedestrian about this chair. Artisan John Carter combines fine art, interior design and social commentary for a truly one-of-a-kind creation. The New York City "Walk/Dont Walk" signs actually work - and a remote control is included to turn them on and off. The legs are made from reconfigured, customized steel street sign brackets, with galvanized, heavy duty self-leveling feet.
The chair can come complete with all the genuine scuffs and stains of its New York City roots or can come "squeaky clean" with a fresh coat of paint.The seating surfaces have been reglazed with one inch-thick polished resin, cushioned with felt suspension. The chair plugs into a standard 115V AC outlet, and the standard bulbs (included) are replaceable. Handmade in New York City.

The skateboard culture also reflects an urban style. Graffiti is also a popular theme among skateboarders.

How to Build a Campaign Style Desk

On Mondays post I shared a few photos and why this desk wasnt a weekend project and how it could be. Today Ill talk about how we built it. Again, a big thank you to David for doing most of it, I was more of an assistant on this project!
First, we calculated the amount of wood we needed and off we went to Home Depot to pick up our supplies:
1x12 Poplar (about 10)
1x2 Poplar (about 48 - we made a second trip for more wood, so I think this is about right :)
For those not familiar with American terminology for wood, for some reason a 1x12 isnt actually 1" tall x 12" wide it is really 3/4" tall x 11 1/4" wide. Same applies for other sizes too, like a 1x2 is really 3/4" x 1 1/2". I know, weird. Just wanted to go over that upfront since I talk about measurements below :) 
Anyways, total for the wood was around $100
We also needed: 
Brass Screws
Wood Glue
Then the two 1x12s were cut and glued together and held with a clamp. Once dry, 5 supports were cut out of 1x2 poplar, the same width as the top and attached to the bottom of the desk with glue and screws and clamped to dry (The last support should be snug against the leg so make sure to account for that- see photos towards end of post). Then 1x2s were cut at a 45 to make the outer frame, glued and  then clamped in place to dry. If you have any gaps use a small amount of wood filler to fill them. 
After everything had dried, all the edges and where the wood meets was sanded with the orbital sander  (120 and then 220 grit) 
Next, we calculated the angle of the X legs. On the table, we started at the edge of the 1x12 (not the very end at the trim) and measured 29.25" for a 30" standard desk height accounting for the .75 top too. We laid two 1x2s on top of each other in an x on the desk top. Lining the top board with the outside of the trim and the bottom with the inside of the trim. We marked with a pencil where the boards intersect in the middle and a straight line at the top and bottom. 
Next we cut the angles (which were just marked) for the top and bottom for eight boards (4 for each x-leg).  We then cut the center sections (drawn where the legs cross making the X) on four of the boards. 
If you use a wood like poplar with a lot of variety in color and grain, you will want to spend some time to match similar boards for each leg. 
Last, we cut a 1.5 inch section out of the inner rear leg to later attach the center brace. 
Now to assemble the legs!  We applied wood glue to all of the pieces, clamped them together and screwed them from the inside. We assembled the four pieces as shown below and then sanded them to make sure the connections were seamless. 
After sanding, we applied glue and screwed the individual legs together creating the X. 
Once the X sides were complete, we applied glue to the corners and sides and set them in place. 
For extra support, we added wood angles to lock the legs in place. David cut a few angles to find the perfect fit and then cut the angle so it would sit flush with the trim. it was glued and clamped in place.
After the legs were set, the center brace (going between the X sides) was glued into place. The center brace was constructed of two 1x2s cut to the width of the table minus three inches (for the trim and outer board of the x-leg)
And that was it! You can see that we used a combination of wood glue and hidden (or less noticeable screws) for the construction. As long as the wood glue dries thoroughly and is clamped to dry, it is very strong! For areas that have more stress, like the legs and table top center supports, we also used screws in addition to the wood glue. Ill take more photos once we have the office complete, but since I took the photos, I also have my large Mac desktop on top and it is very solid. 
I love the grain of the poplar! It probably isnt for everyone, in fact as I was looking at hardwoods online, I saw some references to it as the ugly hardwood. The nerve! Im thinking they were referencing the extreme difference in grains ... so it does take more time to pick out ones that are similar.  
The desktop looks like one piece of wood because we chose wood where the grain would match, also sanding it until it was smooth helped even out the line. 
I think the legs look pretty seamless too ...
If we were building this again, I probably would use oak due to it taking less time in sanding, see Mondays post for my full explanation of why wasnt a weekend project and how to turn it into one!
The total cost was around $100 for wood and about $10 more for screws and wood glue if not already owned. So about $100 cheaper than the World Market equivalent  
Im off to get supplies and work on my next project ... follow me on instagram @sarahmdorseydesigns for sneak peaks!

French Cafe music
Although far from definitive (no Edith Piaf in sight!), this enchanting compilation delivers a perfect aural snapshot of what spending a late summer afternoon in a French cafe actually feels like. The supreme elegance and understated approach that lie at the core of these 13 tracks will delight fans of sophisticated pop. As is the case with previous Putumayo releases, the sequencing is seamless, combining the endearingly old-fashioned flavor of George Brassens with the iconoclastic romanticism of George Gainsbourg and the sultry whispers of a youthful Brigitte Bardot. Better yet, the disc spends some valuable time introducing listeners to a new generation of French musicians who have embraced the traditional chanson format while incorporating fresh elements into the mix. Try the light-as-a-feather caress of female vocalist Enzo Enzo, the sweet playfulness of the electronica-informed Mathieu Boogaerts, and the irrepressible optimism of Paris Combo--a jazzy quintet that represents the French cafe ambiance at its cosmopolitan best.
