Dotty about dots.

These units designed by Japanese born Toyo Ito are available from http://www.horm.it/ .They come finished in either whitened beech or beech with mocha stain. The frame and front are in beech, the circles are made with frosted methacrylate. It includes glass shelves, lights and adjustable feet. I really must get around to having a gander a Toyo's designs. In paper they appear more than great but it's difficult to judge a piece without feeling and seeing it . If I had to judge his polka dot collection, I'd go for understated statement furniture which is a grand feat to achieve. Toyo has definitely peeked my interest.
