The Clock Market, A Good Time to Buy a Porsche

Beverly Hills Porsche at Night

It’s been said that Los Angeles was built around the automobile. Arguably the city’s architecture has evolved along with the car culture. In 1928 architects C.W. Wilson + Sons were commissioned to create a market place specifically designed to attract and accommodate Los Angeles’ motoring public. The Clock Market, named for the large clock tower, was designed to be a multi vendor shopping center with plenty of off street parking. The L-shaped structure once housed a mom-and-pop dry goods market and covered open air produce booths. The center also included a unique feature, a second floor nine room apartment designed for the proprietor’s family. The Clock Market is widely considered the areas first “strip mall”, a neighborhood shopping center design that would eventually become a regular theme in Los Angeles architecture.

Someone Parked a Porsche in the Kitchen.

Poggenpohl presents first Porsche Design kitchen

Porsche Design Group and Poggenpohl present their first co-designed kitchen the P’7340 Kitchen for Men. The new Porsche Design kitchen has a super sleek minimalist style that Dan Neil of the LA Times refers to as “cool, nocturnal and sinister”. The kitchen is distinguished for its innovative framework, purist styling and high-quality materials. Kitchen appliances maker Miele has been selected as the exclusive supplier of all fitted electric appliances.

Back in October 2005, Porsche Design and Poggenpohl signed a co-operation agreement for the purpose. Says Roland Heiler, Managing Director of the Porsche Design Studio in Zell am See: “Our studio already disposed of long-standing experience in designing kitchen and home appliances as well as furniture. In Poggenpohl we have found a partner capable of implementing our idea of what a modern kitchen should look like.”

With their new kitchen, both companies intend to live up to the trend that shows an increasing number of men displaying an interest in ‘kitchen and cuisine’. “In recent years, kitchens have turned into event and representation areas frequently equipped with audio systems”, explains Elmar Duffner, Managing Director of
Poggenpohl. “Our co-operation with Porsche Design enabled us to design a kitchen whose sleek and functional design language specifically addresses male customers.”

The new kitchen is now on display as a show kitchen and sold in Poggenpohl studios around the world including the Poggenpohl showroom located in West Hollywood’s Pacific Design Center. For more information visit their web site: PoggenPohl Porsche Design Kitchen P7340

The Panamera represents a revolution in automotive design and thinking therefore Beverly Hills Porsche thought it appropriate to partner with Kitchen12000 and Tequila Revolucion for this very special night.


Kitchen12000, A food Revolution

Now the word revolution is quite epic, and we know that. But there really is no better word or phrase to describe the motive behind our cause at Kitchen12000.

Finding joy from feeding people is a dying trend, and has been ever since the commercialization of food institutions. Modern society has made it easy to survive without ever having to cook a meal, and there you have it; people are taking the easy route once again.

So instead of spectating, we’ve decided to help spark a change in culinary capitalization by adding some fun to the process. Hoping to instigate appreciation, creativity and collaboration to the food industry while promoting good health to the general population.

Tequila Revolucion, The Civilized Tequila for an Uncivilized World

Tequila Revolución starts with hand selected AGAVES Aged 8 – 10 years to perfection, with the pencas slashed to reveal the exquisite piñas; these piñas are carefully sliced then slowly roasted in brick ovens from 17 – 24 hrs. The baked piñas of Tequila Revolucion is then mashed, shredded and allowed to naturally ferment prior to the careful double distillation process that takes place in (stainless steel) pot stills, creating the smoothest most balanced tequila possible. Our pure 100% agave tequilas are then estate bottled to ensure consistency from start to finish.

Tequila Revolucion Silver provides the pure essence of smoked agave to its clean smooth finish.

Tequila Revolucion Reposado is Barrel aged for 9 months in previously used Tequila casks, much longer than the government minimum of 2 months, to arrive at the perfect balance between a buttery cinnamon flavor and smoothness with an exquisite peppery aftertaste.

Tequila RevoluciÓn Añejo is barrel aged for 18 - 24 months, twice the legal minimum, producing ultra smooth tequila where the influence of the wood imparts the aromas that span the perfect balance of caramel, vanilla and honey with the earthy spiciness of our unique agave!

We thank our partners and hope to see you on October 15th. Viva Panamera!
