Gufram’s radical design at Dubai
During Dubai Design Week from October 27 through 30, Gufram will be exhibiting the best of its production at Downtown Design, the most important commercial platform in the Middle East. At the Design District the public will be able to admire such icons as the mouth-shaped Bocca sofa, the Pratone chair and the Cactus coat stand. To emphasize the continuity between past and future, Gufram will also present the Globe closet designed by Studio Job and the Bounce chair by Karim Rashid.These are two of the most recent projects that pay homage to the innovative spirit of the company that was set up in 1966 and has always aimed at the crosscontamination of industrial and artisanal approaches together with those that are typical of art. The result is an offer composed of furniture that overturns the rules of design through the subtle irony that is an integral part of Gufram’s DNA.(Bounce by Karim-Rashid)
