CA Boom Design Show Descends on Beverly Hills in June – Features Best of Modern Design, Products, and Architecture Tours

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — The CA Boom Design Show (caboomshow.com) is North America’s only multi-discipline non-traditional design trade fair exhibition combining the highest caliber of architects, designers and design manufacturers on the West Coast. The show brings together the best of modern and contemporary design and architecture in a unique exhibit, conference, and tour format. A favorite place for incubating companies and products to make their debuts, the show draws both the design trade and design savvy consumer, and has become a must-attend event for specifiers of quality design and architecture.

CA Boom’s signature feature, its architectural home tours, take place throughout the entire event with shuttles that leave from the venue. Attendees can tour five residential projects each day and meet the actual architects and designers in the process.

“The CA Boom home tours have set an industry precedent of establishing an environment where potential clients can effectively and efficiently interact with five top-notch architects in the span of two to three hours,” says Charles Trotter, CA Boom Design Show creator and executive producer.

A special tour will be on this year’s schedule: The Stahl House Tour. Case Study House #22 (aka the Stahl House), is a modernist home in the Hollywood Hills section of Los Angeles, California, that was designed by Pierre Koenig. Part of the Case Study program, the house is considered an iconic representation of modern architecture in Los Angeles during the 20th century.

One of the original family members will be on site, and part of the proceeds for this tour will go toward maintenance and restoration of the property.

CA Boom 2009 takes place Friday, June 26 through Sunday, June 28 in the former Robinsons flagship department store in Beverly Hills. Friday is “Trade Only Day,” with the show floor opening up to the general public Friday evening.

Brighten Up Your Yard with Resin Furniture

Monday, October 5th, 2009

Stacking resin chairs and tables from Adams Mfg have many advantages over other, more expensive options for the patio. They’re strong, comfortable, and easy to store when they’re not being used. And, they are all 100% recyclable. Now, with bright new colors and styles to choose from, they are the best option for the porch, patio, or deck.

Several paint companies manufacture spray paints for resin products, including furniture. However, adding this finish destroys the environmental benefits of resin furniture.

Furniture can no longer be recycled easily because of the additional paint finish. Before painted plastic can be recycled, all of the paint has to be removed from each piece of plastic. And, some think the paint isn’t as comfortable to sit in on a hot summer day.

Instead of spending unnecessary money on painting the chair, and worrying about unattractive drips and runs, it is much easier to simply recycle existing resin furniture. It’s better for the environment to replace old resin furniture with the season’s hottest colors.

Adams’ high-quality resin furniture is protected from UV rays without being painted, and your color will stay true as long as you have the chair. It’s the best deal for you and the environment!

Established in 1981, Adams Mfg. takes pride in providing high-quality, safe consumer products Made in the USA. In addition to casual furniture, Adams also manufactures Christmas decorating accessories, suction cups, and magnets. The company holds exclusive patents on many of its items.
