Stockholm Design Week 2012: Katrin Greiling
Mutli-talented Katrin Greiling will present at several different venues during the Stockholm Design Week, but it’s this Bidoun Sofa Series that we’re most keen on. Inspired by middle eastern textiles and using old mattress pads – thin and compact for the necessities of nomadic life – she’s built a series of interchangeable building blocks capable of creating some remarkably plush sofas. Designed to retain their portable nature, it’s a typically inventive project from this unconventional designer. Very cool.
