Italian Flash

Souvenir Shop, Rome - Sunday, May 29th, 2011

Went into a gift store looking for some adapters. Saw this, and it made me laugh. The mass-pro nerd in me had to take a picture. It's funny... Just a year or two ago there was no "mass-pro nerd" in me. Well,here's some Italian flash for you all to enjoy.

Ciao,

Ruby

It looks like it's winking! Good find. Did anyone else notice the tons of flash on the earlier products at the Kartell museum as well? All the plastic from the 40's etc - so cool!

About

"Italian Design Grand Tour" explores the features of Made in Italy, taking both its historical and contemporary development into consideration. 20 Industrial Design students from Carleton University brace themselves as they gain first-hand knowledge of "the Communication of Made in Italy" through meeting historical leading designers, architects and professionals; as well as visits to the most representative companies; schools of design; design centers, museums, exhibitions and galleries that Italy has to offer.

While breathing, living, and walking in the heart of Italy's culture, four major cities will be covered: Rome, Venice, Florence, and Milan. Inizia l'avventura!
