Hunt & Gather: Scenes from The Good Mod


After a stop at Portland Powder Coating to pick out the perfect shade of white for a custom marble and steel dining table, I detoured to the nearby warehouse location of The Good Mod.  Well curated and laid out, the 7,000 sq.ft. showroom has a striking collection of unusual seating, case goods, and decorative accessories.  A friendly staff member greeted me and gave me a primer on a pair of first-edition Eames fiberglass chairs, which sadly had to leave in the showroom.  I'm headed back to the showroom this Sunday the 30th for the MCM League's meeting featuring local legend, Saul Zaik.  Checkout TGM's Facebook page for more info.  See you there?

Let's do it! It's a great chance to hear a pdx legend speak. He visited my old firm a few years back for a talk- great guy.
