The contemporary design pieces at the famous Design Miami show gave us an idea. Become a curator and create an installation for your yard. Be inspired by the great works at the show that sell for thousands of dollars to knowledgeable collectors and investors.

Pop art is still popular so create a usable icon. The green Campbell’s Tomato Soup (pictured on the left) can inspired by Andy Warhol’s work was at Design Miami priced at $40,000. It is a 2015 creation by Studio Simon. The can has an upholstered seat. I found this vintage 18-inch high Pepsi-Cola can (pictured on the right) that held syrup for restaurants, and added a round cushion to make a Pop-Art advertising stool. Maybe I should give a curatorial explanation that pop-art merges popular and mass culture with fine art while injecting humor, irony and recognizable imagery in the mix. Or just say “Looks great in the hall.”
