Missoni:

Thinking about creating the appearance of knitwear in woven textiles, i was researching missoni and came across these missoni sofa's which i fell head over heels for! Only £2500 each . . . Bargain!

'Cheap Thrills was a room part of the exhibition "Just in" (Nu Binnen) In the Dutch Architecture institute in Rotterdam (Nai). Ten designers gave their vision on the interior of the future. My room had walls made out of horizontal blinds that were gold on one side and black on the other. They flipped every minute, changing the walls of the room from black to gold and back to black again. The bedcover was woven from 3 different colors seatbelt and when you would walk around the bed it would show the different colors from different angles. Over the bed hung an extra large disco-dome and under the bed lay a carpet that had bubblegum stains in bubblegum colors with sneaker-sole imprints. All these cheap thrills just wanted to show you that you don't always need high tech equipment for special effects or a smile' www.bertjanpot.nl
Possibly the most fun site i've stumbled on for a while. Pretty into graphic art in design any way but this is beautifully graphic whilst still having the textural quality that textiles offer.Woven Seatbelts made into a bed. . .that's innovation for you. . . . . love it!
