Some snobs, trying to understand how people eat and live, went to the poorest parts of the world and stole improvised kitchens to research them for product development. I understand the concept, the idea and the artistic approach but I do not get how these necessities were extracted from their original environment. Stealing bribing or recreating using similar materials? Wouldn't it be great to also see the context from which these kitchens came from? I can't imagine the curator painting each visitor a larger picture of the artifact. Nevertheless, bravo! Let me understand…

The research in itself is deeply satisfying and I'm curious to see where this line of inquiry ends up design-wise for Mike Meiré. @ Modular: Nothing in the least wrong with the lovely Mr. Scarlett, I would also add young Yves Saint Laurent to the confection.
