Metal Tiles by Karim Rashid for ALLOY

Karim Rashid has designed a collection of metal tiles for the Australian manufacturer ALLOY.

Karim Rashid says:

I have always been obsessed with patterns. Working with ALLOY has given me a great opportunity to play with the idea of pattern, grid, and repetition. A pattern is a way of giving richness and depth to our Cartesian landscape. The more diversity of line, shape, and composition, the more interesting a single cell is. The undulating, curvilinear forms give a 2-dimensional surface a sense of 3-dimensions. These elements repeat in a predictable manner but they are designed to contradict the square tile. This collection for ALLOY is organic in shape because I believe that the world needs a softening and a more fluid human spirit.

Vertex Chair by Karim Rashid

One of the latest great works by KARIM RASHID, we can find it in VERTEX, a family of ultra-contemporary sculpted outdoor & indoor furniture designed for the Spanish brand VONDOM.

Vertex, a set of table and chairs, its triangular planes meet dynamically to create comfortable forms suitable for dining, meeting rooms, banquet, lecture halls and other casual needs.
VERTEX looks as if it was chiseled from a single block of material, what is left is structural yet, beautiful.

The collection VERTEX is created for integrating into our space a more conceptual architectural piece, to give it a more sophisticated touch.
The pieces are manufactured by rotational molding, the main characteristic of this technique
is that the material is 100% recyclable and it can explore never-ending possibilities in the shapes.
