Five years ago...

Five years ago we were the first to publish images of an apartment designed for Kanye West by architect Claudio Silvestrin, following a chance encounter with the musician during Design Miami 2006.

Astronaut Buzz Aldrin and actress Kate Winslet were the latest stars to design toys for furniture store Habitat, while Brazilian designers the Campanas revealed designs for chairs made from Disney cuddly toys.

We featured photographs of a rather dark pavilion by architect David Adjaye, as well as a more colourful one by Zaha Hadid at furniture fair imm cologne, and we offered our congratulations to Thomas Heatherwick and Maisie Rowe on the birth of their twins.
