April Design Evening with Mira Nakashima-Yarnall

Mira Nakashima-Yarnall, daughter of George Nakashima and creative director of the Nakashima Studios, joins Apartment Therapy this April!

We’ll hear how Mira has extended the Nakashima tradition, not only by producing George’s “classic” lines, but also by reviving some of the older ones, and by continuing the evolution of new design solutions. Mira will share her designs, named “Keisho” (“continuation” in Japanese), which preserve the methods and techniques embraced by her father, such as working from the same wood-pile, where the wood itself determines its own contours, dimensions and understructure.

As always, we're hoping to kick off the evening with two or three short design presentations. If you're a design student/designer and would like to show one great design at our design evening, please email me at herma@apartmenttherapy.com.

Also, we're so excited about our new host and sponsor this year, ABC Carpet & Home (http://www.abchome.com/)!

Please RSVP here on Meetup.com, and make sure to include the first and last name of you and your guest by Tuesday, April 5th at 3pm.

Thanks and hope to see you all there!
