Frank Gehry Outdoor Furniture
Oh, mama. THE gift for the modernist gardener who really has everything. The sofa is $1,200 but the twist cubes are only $200. What a statement for the back yard. Frank Gehry is, of course, the expressionist post-modern architect who designed the magnificent Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, among many other high-profile buildings. I (along with many others) love the sweeping lines of the museum. It's interesting to see that design model translated into outdoor furniture. Not quite right for my wild garden but could be stunning in other settings.
