The most beautiful faucet I have ever seen. The true blend of form and function, I absolutely love when normally mundane objects are re-invented to be stunning pieces of art. www.graff-faucets.com |
DWELL on Design 2012
What a show! I was thrilled to exhibit this year and couldn't ask for a better platform to launch FORME. I was utterly inspired at every turn and already can't wait until next year!
It would be so busy during the day I never had a chance to leave the booth to explore. So I would arrive at the convention center at 8 am before the doors would open to the public and walk the aisles, my jaw dropping at the innovative ideas and products represented. It was an impressive set up, 2 full pre-fab houses were constructed inside the convention center, full showrooms were installed and even 2 airstream trailers were brought in. It was just a buffet of cutting edge design from across the entire spectrum, architecture, interiors, landscaping, home products, textiles, lighting and yes jewelry :)
Here are just a few of my personal favorites, it was very hard not to include the whole exhibitor directory!
