Qeeboo - Carpet Patch Rectangular

This drawing belongs to the series of pictorial tables “Mostri” designed by Alessandro Mendini in 2014. He had many references, from the naive of the Amazon, to the signs and the utopias typical of his design thought. A pattern of pure fantasy, composed in patch-work with heterogeneous and inhomogeneous parts, capable of arousing non-describable hypotheses of ancient tales.

Alessandro Mendini

Alessandro Mendini; Milanese architect and designer, he mainly deals with neo-modern and contemporary design. His research focuses on the design of furniture, environments, architecture and installations. The characteristic of his projects has as a trait d'union an eccentric taste for the combination of contrasting elements by reworking apparently antithetical cues and ideas. In collaboration with Alessi, Philips, Swarovski and Swatch, he has designed iconic pieces that have enriched the world design scene. In addition to this, for the Cappellini catalog, Mendini created the Proust armchair and its variant with renewed upholstery, Proust Geometrica. In 1979 and 1981 he won the Compasso d'Oro for design, he also received the honor of the Architectural League of New York and the Laurea Honoris Causa at the Milan Polytechnic and at the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Cachan, in France.
