The Crit #10: Fash or Tat
We are pleased to announce the 10th episode of The Crit, Disegno’s podcast about design and current affairs.
In ‘Fash or Tat’, our hosts reflect on David Rockwell’s set design for the Oscars; Herman Miller buying Knoll; the death of Yahoo! Answers; the changing fates of the Downing Street Media Room; and a double trophy from the Brit Awards. We also remember the inimitable Alber Elbaz. In the projects and products category, we look at Moooi, Pearson Lloyd, Svenskt Tenn and London’s Design Museum.
