i think it’s good…
i’m not a pro in industrial design..
but i think it’s ok to use extrusion..
although it’s different from his old design…
did he change his style?
honestly i prefer his previous design…
but still, it’s nice =D

HI,

if any of you guys had been to the exo , or read the bio, you’d see that he has’nt over looked the fact the marble has a historic past,

His designs are really amazing, you say ” its juat a simple 2d extrusion” but who thought of doing a simple extrusion?? not you. He did, so why not use an original idea.

Thats not design… Design its make life better, for all the people, not just for a few that can pay something too senseless as a Carrara Chair…
A good designer can design & produce a beuty and functional chair whit elements that everybody could pay and of course; materials that dont afect so much ecology.

To finish I agree, Its not original.

i agree, that shelf sold for nearly 400,000 dollars, so i would do a lame extrusion too if i had his name and could get away with it…though i personally like it

i must say this is quite dissapointing to me. first of all its marc newsom… considered to be the most important designer of our times, and secondly he uses carrara marble. the historical and cultural significance of using this material was completely overlooked, nevermind the fact that it is not using the material correctly or exploiting its most intriguing characteristics. these are simply (bad) 2-dimensional graphic extrusions, they could have been much more sculptural, and have a personality. but hey, cash in marc…they’ll sell like hotcakes simply for having your name attached to them.

Sorry, It’s Carrara, not Carrera marble.
The chair is pretty hot
