50 years of the Four Seasons
design rag metropolis mag just published an article about New York's famous Four Seasons. what strikes me about the profile of the restaurant contained within the iconic Seagram Building is how much it was a profile of one man, Philip Johnson. More than just the designer of the space, he established himself as the sort of de facto governor of the see and be seen crowd of professionals that paraded through the grill room. anyway, long live the four seasons and long live philip johnson. even though he is dead.
