A Color Explosion
Internationally known industrial designer Karim Rashid, dubbed "the Prince of Plastic", is known for his Woopy Chair and the Bobble water flask and over 3,000 pop, colorful designs for companies like Umbra and Alessi, in addition to restaurants and subway stations. Unsurprisingly, his four-bedroom townhouse in New York City's Hell's Kitchen neighborhood is a study in high design and color. Rashid's is one of the many homes of creatives featured in the Phaidon book Life Meets Art: Inside the Homes of the World's Most Creative People.
