Historic Tech Makeover: Oliver Schick's Living Space

Taking on a 110 square meter historic building, Oliver Schick interior design encourages modern thinking and home tech incorporation into a small, vintage package. The result is a very built-in look (look at that beautiful storage unit with integrated swing-out display), with many custom pieces, and a streamlined environment that can only have been catered to all of us technophiles here at Unplggd...

Let's just say we can only hope Oliver has some free time to revamp our dated downtown district here in mid-town Sacramento!

@kdkaboom
I'd help you clean up your drool but I'm afraid I'd just get my drool all over you again. And then where would we be?

At first I thought the chair was blu dot or ligne roset. It doesn't appear to be from either of those, but the blu dot site is down so I couldn't really check it. I'm not sure where its from.

The couch, on closer inspection, appears to be from design within reach. http://www.dwr.com/category/furniture/living/albert-collection-sierra.do

Also: this is SO fabulous. I'm thinking the green chair is blu dot cause that is their shade - "avocado."

I checked for the chair with Blu Dot, but it's not there... any other guesses?

That one red chair in the kitchen is great!
