Daniel Shapiro: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Daniel’s penchant for unique vintage pieces is showcased throughout his home, especially in the living area. With a collection ranging from Mid-Century American and Danish furnishings, to Asian and African accessories, it is clear that Shapiro’s taste is as diverse as his passport.
The coffee table at the center of the room is particularly important to Daniel; Enough so that it is the first thing that he would want to rescue in the case of a fire. “That might be challenging given its size and weight”, he says “but it has sentimental meaning for me as I was with my Dad when he purchased it for the living room in my childhood home.” Just recently Shapiro learned that the table was created by Philip and Kelvin LaVerne, a 1960’s father-and-son design team known for their tables with chinoiserie influences.
