"Snailmailboxes" for meatspace lovers: analog messaging nostalgia

By at 2:57 pm Monday, Jan 20

Via DailyCandy:
The Snail Mailbox, designed by Boym Partners, is a beautiful example of an old-fashioned concept made new all over again. Made from sturdy, powder-coated steel and available in cream and silver, it's an ode to utilitarian chic that'll dress up your abode while protecting your precious snail mail. For apartment dwellers, it makes a great indoor accessory -- perfect for storing your whatnot (keys, TV remotes, dog leash) or just showing off your excellent taste. We don't know about you, but we've yet to find a Hotmail inbox that can do all that. Available [in L.A.] at Homework, 1153 North Highland Avenue, between Santa Monica Boulevard and Fountain Avenue (323-466-1153).
