Fashion and faucets
Last weekend, I sat with an esteemed group of designer/ bloggers in a faucet seminar hosted by the incredible design and marketing team from Brizo . Our seminar consisted of a review of their current offerings, a preview of what's coming in the next few model years and some really great discussions with Brizo's design team about what inspires them to do the work they do. It's no accident that Brizo's events coincide with Fashion Week, the runway shows in New York are events industrial designers attend anyway. What goes down those runways goes on to inspire the offerings and trends of every consumer product you can imagine, it's far more than just apparel.
This is the RSVP, it was inspired by an Erte example.
This is the Baliza, stimulated via the traces and light beam of a lighthouse.
This is the Vesi Channel, stimulated by way of water rushing down a mountain circulation.
This is the Floriano, stimulated with the aid of a wilting flower.
This is the Virage, a look at of lines and shadows based totally on a wrought iron grille.
It's beautiful, intensely creative work and seeing what the designers at Brizo are working on now is a thrill and a privilege. So who knows what will inspire the next great faucet? Or the next great car, sofa, mobile phone, book cover, Kleenex box or soup can?
Can a tap be born of this?
Or this?
Maybe this.
Stay tuned, there's some really thrilling things coming from the House of Brizo in the next few years.
So the opposite bloggers who had been in New York with me final weekend have been a quite astonishing group. Being in New York turned into an honor enough, being counted as a member of this esteemed group was some thing I by no means notion might ever turn out to be. Amazing.
