Designer Spotlight: Christian Rathbone's 5 Favorite Décor Pieces

-

Christian Rathbone’s super chic rug collection is proof of his impeccable taste, and we could all learn a thing or two from his eye for elegance. Forget what the trends dictate! Instead, let this hip designer’s insight into his favorite décor pieces guide the way to modish interiors. We asked Christian for his current favorites:

- Beam Coffee Table by Environment Furniture:

“I love the surreal and simple look of Environment’s pieces. The use of large beams of wood really gives the material an undeniable identity.”

- Bottle Lamp by Kusumoto Sukehiro: “This piece seems to reach out in all directions. I like how the bottles conform to the design and not the other way around. Because of this, the form stands out, rather than the materials.”

- Monarch Chair by Jennifer Prince:

“This chair reminds me of the skeleton of an airplane wing. As well as being visually stunning, it’s very comfy to sit in.”

-Skeleton Pillow by Ortolan:

“I’m a big fan of using uncommon design ideas and themes on accessories. That’s why the look of the skeleton pillow is very appealing.”

- Paper Tables by Matt Gagnon:

“This substantial piece is made from recycled paper. It provides a good example that good design does not have to be sacrificed and can even be enhanced by using recycled or sustainable materials.”

It’s clear that Christian’s expertise in design goes way beyond textiles. You can find his artistic creations at Vivavi. Also, make sure to check out his Series of Eight rug that we recently featured.
