Your Splashy New Bachelor Pad


Vintage Mid Century Modern Bar

It’s the 1960s suburban domestic fantasy of offering your guests afternoon highballs from your living room bar brought right to your Brooklyn apartment, wrapped in a sexy Mid-Century Danish outfit. This portable bar car is indisputably sexy and can turn your otherwise bland bachelor / bachelorette pad into a place you’re proud to entertain in.



And, while we’re at, why not add these vintage cocktail glasses to really complete the scene:

Vintage Marcel Breuer Cesca Tubular Cantilever Chairs

Running out of seating space to accommodate all of your cool new friends who are coming over for afternoon cocktails, served from your new Mid-Century modern portable bar? These light and cheery chairs will work well for a casual living room social setting, or out on a terrace (if you're lucky enough to have one in the city!) Also, they are small enough to be stored away in a closet when you're not hosting your cocktail soiree.


New York, $360

This Danish sofa has a lot of character and looks to be in very good condition. And should your friends’ visit get a little more confessional, the comfortable sofa can quickly turn into a psychotherapist patient chair. 



Yonkers, $2300

c.1930s. Wyeth Bimini Rolling Chaise Hotel Deck Chair

Roll into 1960s Hollywood with this charmingly clinical looking outdoor lounge chair. You can daydream from your studio apartment that you’re poolside at the Chateau Marmont in a decade past. Kick back with a blended drink in your hand and you just might forget that you’re in Windsor Terrace.


Williamsburg, $100

Mid-Century Hide-Away Dining Table

Despairing the fact that your New York apartment lacks a proper dining room, or any room for a table and chairs at all? Well, join 90% of the city – but instead of wallowing in a shortage of square footage, celebrate innovative solutions such as this ‘hideaway’ table – giving you Mid-Century charm and the ability to have a makeshift dinner party with your favorite neighborhood couple. After your convivial dinner, tuck this bad boy away in a closet for the next hurrah.

Mid-Century Modern Valet Chair

This handsome valet chair is the pinnacle of form meeting function. Imagine how this chair can elevate your ‘getting ready’ routine in the morning: you pick your outfit out the night before and hang it (along with your tie or any other accessory) delicately on the hanger atop this chair. As you’re clipping your toenails in a bathrobe, seated on the luxurious faux-alligator cushion, you can muse about your day to come, all the while knowing that the outfit you picked out the night before is hanging above you, ready to clothe you in your fantasy day. You will emerge from your apartment with confidence of James Stewart before a day at Paramount.


Park Slope, $65

Mid-Century Mini Armrest Chair

You don't have to have mini arms to enjoy this stylish mini armrest chair. What a great accent piece...


East Village, $210
