NY NOW Winter 2014 Photo Round-up!
Posted in: Uncategorized
‘Toto Wooden Dolls’ by Artek. The villagers, called Martta, Kerttu, Aaro and Eemil, are made by turning wood and finished with painting by hand.
The ‘Toto Wooden Dolls’ were designed by Kaj Franck in 1945 as collectables for the Finnish magazine Kotiliesi.
Here’s a quick round-up of some of the noteworthy stuff we came accross at the Accent on Design section of the home and giftware show NY NOW (f.k.a. NY International Gift Fair), which faced some stiff competition last weekend, coinciding with Chinese New Year festivities and the Superbowl. This year’s show was loaded with some really impressive ceramics, as well as Tom Dixon’s ever-expanding catalog of products, and it was great to see so many young designers with really solid product photography, personal branding, and marketing collateral. Check out the highlights below:
Ceramic ‘Buddie Vessels’ by Mirena Kim.
‘Nest’ storage containers by Joseph Joseph with their signature color-coding.
Rocking wooden and brass paper-weights ‘Tipsy’ by Bower.
