At "Fuori Salone" (a series of events and exhibitions collateral of "International Furniture Fair" in Milan and open to the public) the new collection "Design Art" by Karim Rashid for C&C Milano was presented.
Karim Rashid, who is used to work in three dimensions with object and furniture, tried and succeeded to reproduce on fabric the sense of movement through clean geometric patterns.
Of course Pink is still his favourite colour also because he said in an interview that he wants to send a message to the world of designers and architects, and beyond, still strongly dominated by male.
Graphic patterns and fluorescent colours
Radiant, Cocoon, Echo, Lattice some of the names of the "Design Art Collection"
A vibrant and contemporary collection of gorgeous fabrics.

nice post! like the decor
I think Karim Rashid along Jaime Hayon, Philippe Stark, and Marcel Wanders are bringing a new appreciation to what is going to be good design early two thousands (lol) early century design perhaps!
Karim Rashid is a talented designer. I saw a piece of furniture he had won a Compasso d' Oro award for in Italy last year. He continually creates in new and innovative ways. Check out his web-site....he has interactive musical instruments. That is the only way I can describe it, because I have never seen it before.
Nice blog, you can find some more Italian Contemporary Furniture here.
No doubt that those interiors are gorgesous. Most of all i like the second one.
