raw edges installation at design miami/basel part of the designers of the future exhibition
raw edges studio constructed an alp influenced piece for design/miami basel.
as design media, both plaster and mirror are considered to be essentially surface materials, since neither can be used as load-bearing structural elements, the ‘superficial’ aspect is the core of this experiment: the designers were asked to use materials associated with ornamentation to execute a meaningful contemporary design idea. since the materials are so adaptable, the designers had free license to interpret them according to their individual approaches.
raw edges one of the four winners of ‘the designers of the future award 2009’ at design miami/ basel.
