100% DESIGN TOKYO, Daniel Rohr at Blickfang

Saturday, December 27th, 2008


Blickfang was a fair within a fair here at 100% design Tokyo. Showcasing only European designers you could feel a bit of Bavaria in the air. We had the chance to talk with Daniel Rohr (who was also at the pecha kucha night at Superdeluxe a few days earlier). Daniel walked us through his graduation project (drinking glasses) as well as his screw table furniture, both projects playful and calm at the same time.

Okay Studio, “Under the same roof” at Aram store, london

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

 

OKAY Studio is a collective of individual designers sharing a bit more then a workspace. This will be the first curated exhibition (presented at the London Design Festival 2008) of the group. The exhibition will transform the Aram Gallery into a series of ‘rooms’ that will represent the working spaces of each of the members of the studio, reflecting on how they operate successfully as colleagues rather than as a branded consultancy. Under The Same Roof will show the work of: Shay Alkalay, Tomas Alonso, Jordi Canudas, Mathias Hahn, Peter Marigold, Yael Mer, Oscar Narud, Hiroko Shiratori and Jorre van Ast. www.okaystudio.org
