pa href=”http://www.rollandhill.com/”Roll and Hill/a, a new design brand founded by designer a href=”http://www.millerstudio.us/”Jason Miller/a in January of 2010, produces contemporary lighting fixtures; though they don’t mention working only with American designers, their first collection comes directly out of New York, with pieces from Jason Miller, Lindsey Adelman, Paul Loebach, Rich Brilliant Willing, and Partners Spade. /p

pThough some of the pieces will be shown at ICFF in the Javits Center, the full collection will be staged (for the first time) at Great Jones Lumber as part of the new a href=”http://www.nohodesigndistrict.com/”NoHo Design District/a. The show will be open from the 15th through the 18th./p

pAccording to Jason Miller, this is “hopefully a sign of the strength of the design industry in the United States.” Though it’s easy enough to say, we agreemdash;the offsite scene is shaping up to be especially strong this year, with the a href=”http://www.nohodesigndistrict.com/”NoHo Design District/a joining SoHo and Meatpacking, and US-focused shows like a href=”http://www.citegoesamerica.com/”400 sq.

pAs part of New York Design Week’s NoHo Design District, a href=”http://www.yelp.com/biz/japan-premium-beef-new-york”Japan Premium Beef/a, part-butcher, part-gallery, will present the glass sausages of a href=”http://sambaron.org/”Sam Baron/a, art director at Fabrica. The installation combines glamour, handicraft, representation, allegory, fragility, rusticity and humor./p

blockquoteItalian glass blowers since the beginning have always tried to reproduce natural elements such as flowers and birds. Nowadays it’s hard for us to experience the beauty of a piece of meat because of our modern lifestyles and how little time we have to cook.

pThis installation unites the beauty of glass with the beauty of a good handmade sausage. /p

pThe glass is also a reference to the crystal pieces that compose a chandelier, with the manner in which the sausages are strung together and hung from the ceiling evoking those lighting fixtures that always bring life to the center of a room.br /
