Newsletter #159
This week Design.nl talks to Lidewij Edelkoort about her "Talking Textiles" event in Milan this year. We take you on a voyage of discovery with Formafantasma, where new types of plastic are discovered, hear back from jewellery pop-up shop OP-VOORRAAD and visit the shop windows of Rotterdam where GLR students are displaying their graduation work. Finally, we whisk you off to the swanky department store Metz & Co, whose collaboration with textile designer Sonia Delauney is currently exhibited in New York.
Sonia Delaunay for Metz & Co
Currently on show at the Smithsonian’s Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum New York: the designs created by Sonia Delaunay for Amsterdam department store Metz & Co.
