KAASA KARIM - captures the eye and imagination
KAASA, conceived by Karim Rashid and brought to reality by A.A.T.C. and Co. Srl , has been the star of A.A.T.C. design in 2024.
This extraordinary project features a whole apartment made entirely in marble, from the kitchen area to the bathroom, from the bedroom to the living room, occupying an area of 70 square meters.
Rashid pushed the boundaries of crea??vity by playing with shapes, creating elements that defy perception and physical laws, transforming the hardness and heaviness of marble into soft forms and refined details.
The bedroom area, characterized by the use of marble, shows an oasis of comfort and relaxation together with the marble bedside tables completing the atmosphere with elegance and practicality.
The harmonious curves in marble convey an unparalleled elegance and sophistication to lamps, decorative objects, and chandeliers.
The gracefully illuminated table lamp produces a visually stunning effect that enhances the exquisite texture of marble, enveloping spaces in a cozy and inviting atmosphere.
The room is furnished with simple paneling, yet characterized by a timeless elegance.
The pattern is distinguished by the use of sinuous curves and geometric elements that are inspired by the gears of a chain. This chain seems to escape from traditional interlocks, evoking a sense of freedom and the continuous flow of time.
The interaction between fluid shapes and mechanical structures creates a dynamic and harmonious visual effect, representing freedom and perpetual motion.
The forms and structures are made in Rosa Norvegia, Verde Antico, and Lasa Covelano Silver Gold marbles, materials known for their solid structure and distinctive colors, capable of giving a sense of strength and strong visual impact to the design.
Materials and colors are expertly integrated into the design, following Karim Rashid's formula of introducing new design ideas with style and coherence.
