Historical Origin And Design Inspiration

"Life Happens On The Sofa."

Today the couch is invariably linked to both domestic family life and television culture. "Life Happens On The Sofa." It is often positioned in relation to the television set in a family room and for napping. It has spawned social phenomena such as the couch potato, a person who spends a lot of time watching the television. The couch has also become the central prop for many TV sitcoms and soap operas. This symbiosis, through which the couch has shifted from the private to the public sphere, has been satirically depicted in popular culture, in television series such as "All in the Family" Married... with Children, The Simpsons, The Big Comfy Couch, Friends, The Royal Family and Beavis and Butthead.


Sofa can be traced back to ancient Egypt of around 2000 BC, but the true sofa was invented in the end of the 16th to the early 17th century. At that time, horse hair, bird feather, plant villi such as natural flexible materials were made as the filler, with the outside velvet, embroidery, or other fabrics masked, to form a soft sofa surface.

If You Dream Of The Ultimate Entertainment Center We Can Build The Cabinet
weather you dream in the scenario we have described herein or just want to simply watch TV we can build the cabinet for your needs as well as your dreams.


Picture yourself in front of a 100-inch color Television and Computer Monitor"â邬shoes off, feet up, remote control in hand.
But this is not just any remote control. This is a special remote unit that controls all of the components in your entertainment and computing system.


You push the TV button and bring up World News Tonight on the monitor: Peter Jennings reports that the stock market has soared to new highs. As he fades into a commercial, you decide to call Dow Jones News/Retrieval to see how your own stocks did. But first, you push the compact disc button to fill the room with a Beethoven symphony so real that you wonder where the orchestra is hiding. Then you press the VID2 key to put the computer video on the screen. You reach for the PCjr's wireless keyboard and start the appropriate communications program; then you press TV to return to the news while the computer retrieves the quotes.


At the next break, you display the Dow Jones results onscreen with the VID2 key. After the newscast, you press the VCR STOP, REWIND, and PLAY keys to view the "M*A*S*H" rerun you've been taping from an independent station. But first, you check the progress of the cassette tape you've been recording from an FM stereo broadcast.


A Intelligent audio/video integrates numerous components into a single system commanded from a single remote control. The heart of the system is a 36-inch stereo monitor/ receiver. All you need is a monitor and components such as AM/FM receiver/ amplifier, a compact audio disc player, a cassette tape recorder, two phonographs, a graphic equalizer, and several models of stereo VHS video recorders. And more cabinets to house them.


Plus connections so you can also connect other components, including home computers. The wireless keyboard can be connected in three ways. Like most home computers and videogame machines and can be hooked up to a TV's antenna terminals with an RF modulator. And more cabinet space to keep it all neat.


Composite video is as clear as the RGB mode, and it has an added advantage: You can record its output with a video cassette recorder. This means you can run programs on the PCjr and record the results on the VCR, which is perfect for putting titles on your home videos. You can also dub stereo audio from a compact disc player, the AM/FM tuner, the cassette recorder, or the phonograph. And all you need is more cabinet space.

Scottsdale Art Factory carries on the American Arts And Crafts Movement of the 21st century, in the same way William Morris and John Ruskin (founders of the Arts and Crafts furniture movement in circa 1800 England) inspired Gustave Stickley (founder of the American Arts and Crafts movement) in America circa 1900. Frank Loyd Wright, Charles and Henry Greene (inspired architects of the ultimate cottages such as the Gamble House in Pasadena California) are credited with raising quality standard to its highest level in their day. All of these great master craftsman also inspired the Marabella Brothers in the early 20th Century (founders of SAF circa 1913).


Every creative enterprise is always built on a foundation that was laid down by its predecessors. Creative people are also dependent on the groundwork laid down by those who came before them. H. J. Nick, artist and direct descendant of the Marbella brothers, and Scottsdale Art Factory have built on these foundations and have raised the bar of quality even higher. Thus setting a new standard and offering the finest one of a kind handmade furnishings found anywhere in the world in the 21st century.
