pThough it didn’t make it into the Interni Guide, the a href=”http://www.cinqcinqdesigners.com/”5.5 Designers/a show tucked into a small courtyard in Milan’s Chinatown was a highlight of our week. Mentioned in a prior Core77 a href=”http://www.core77.com/blog/milan10/milan_design_week_2010_preview_55_designers_cuisine_dobjets__16353.asp”preview post/a as an “Autoprogettazione for the No-Stop City, ” emCuisine d’Objet/em provided 5 recipes from which to construct objects for everyday life: Feuilleteacute; de Livres, Celouteacute; de Lumieacute;re, Pateacute;res en Croucirc;te, Tabouret Faccedil;on Tatin, and Fondant de Bougie. This translates roughly to: Feuilleteacute; (puff pastry) of Books, Velouteacute; (a French sauce) of Light, Hooks in Crust, Stool in the way of Tatin, and Candle Fondant. /p

pIn person, the cooking metaphor rang true: using the same basic ingredients and techniques (cement, things to mix with it, and something to pour it in), a variety of effects were produced, from suspended candle chandeliers to large floor lamps made of branches./p
