Update From Design Week 2010

Versace presented an impressively colourful collection of up-to-the-minute design this year - a change from the glitz and dazzle of last year - at the world’s premier home furnishings & design expo in Milan.

“You need to have a place to relax and be yourself. Crystal is very spiritual, that’s why we chose it,” Donatella Versace

So now you know what “spiritual” looks like.

Some of this years highlights, so far, from Versace include:

“Sunburst” - a crystal round table.

Fourteen coloured projections in chromed metal extend from the base, so that it “conveys the strength of a solar explosion.”

“Versace Bed”

…. “made of mattresses.”

Blown Glassware

Versace and Venini announced the formation a new partnership for the production of high quality blown glassware - such as these sexy vases.
