"I’m a recent but already huge fan of Diane Carnevale’s Chair du Jour blog. Every day she posts an elegant and accurate blue and white watercolor of a different chair — famous icons and wacky one-offs, both. Better yet, she’s well educated in the world of chair design, and includes a history of each chair, plus her own always-witty personal commentary."
