Asian design, western build

***Matthieu*** · April 18th, 2012, 03:49 PM

Alessi made these limited editions products. The idea is to have them designed by Chinese designers and produced in the West. They are very asian looking products with the usual quality built from Alessi (which is high).

I bought for myself the Ming and Jane trays and the Floating Earth tree looking one.

Japanese design this time, the Sundial bookshelves are designed by Nendo, a Japanese studio, and produced by Kartell.

Nice idea, but I wonder, it is functional if you have more books on the shelf?

Great idea and i like it very much. We all knows that everyone used to dreaming about their own house, so we can arrange our home into, in which way we want. Mainly home look is depends on the flooring, furniture and decoration etc..

The designs are great, however the quality of the materials should be considered too. Creating quality products should be prioritize to make your clients believe in your company. Providing great designs are needed to attract customers and clients. People will trust you if you deliver a quality products and the money they spend is worth it.
