As a little girl, Mary Hunt Kahlenberg played in her family's attic, which was stuffed with three generations of furniture, clothes, and other treasures. Among these heirlooms was a box of silk ribbons from the days when ladies wore them to adorn their hats and clothes. In her new book, Five Centuries of Indonesian Textiles, co-edited with Ruth Barnes and published by Delmonico Books/ Prestel, Kahlenberg describes the ribbons as "snippets of silksome striped in amazing colors, others with flowers in lush velvet, as well as lengths of heavy silk grosgrain." "I became very enamored of those ribbons and all of the old clothes that hung around in the attic," Kahlenberg recalled in a recent conversation with Pasatiempo. "I give credit to those materials for my interest in textiles, which sta...

The click of Modernism Julius Shulman, who died last year at 98, was arguably the most significant photographer of architecture, ever. And if we're talking about the documentation of the Case Study Houses and other shining examples of mid-century American Modernism, he was simply the best. He made stylish buildings look even more amazing than they were, though architects didn't always like what he did. Richard Neutra, for example, was scandalized when Shulman brought a lot of furniture to his shoots. In the 2009 film Visual Acoustics: The Modernism of Julius Shulman, Judy McKee, the photographer's daughter, says, "My father would carry half of our household furniture around with him, which probably gave Richard Neutra a heart attack when he saw him drive up with all these props, because...
