Moooi at Milan

Claire Sullivan - Tuesday, April 21, 2009
In an obvious attempt to make light of certain current economic conditions, Marcel Wanders has released 'The killing of the Piggy Bank'. The ceramic piece is typical of Wanders always humorous approach to design, particularly when he states that  it's main purpose is as a vase to hold flowers, which is probably better than holding nothing at all. 


You'll have to use your imagination here, the above 'Blow Away Vase' by Front for Moooi was actually on display today next to a large fan, which did a good job of  representing the designers vision of a Royal Delft vase given new parameters once it has been exposed to simulated wind. 

Once again Moooi have taken an artistic and humorous approach to their design presentations. Moooi is available from ECC.
