Egg Designs







My favorite, heart pounding favorite mind you, booth at the ICFF was Amaridian. It's new to me, possibly why I was so excited, but apparently they have a shop in Soho...who knew? Obviously not I. Well, I won't get wordy here but basically owners Mary Slack and Fraser Conlon, work with emerging African artists to "bridge a new idea of Africa with America through the arts". One of my favorite designers was Egg Designs, a South African team creating some incredible (edible eggs...sorry, I just had to. darn commercials) furniture. I've never in my life wanted a beetle anywhere near me until I caught sight of their "bug" series. And that Sungoddess daybed? Oh, just glide me to the moon.
