Ciot at IDS08 Posted on February 16th




The above renderings were used for promotional material at the show and published in the Globe & Mail, February 15, 2008.

The Globe followed up with another story after the show, by John Bentley Mays, that summarized the four “Collaborations” projects. Here’s what he wrote about the booth for Ciot:

“The project created by a team led by Pina Petricone and Ralph Giannone was the most fantastic contribution to the Collaborations exhibit. It offered a charming lesson on the possibilities of stone in design — old stone, including sumptuous green Connemara marble from Ireland, and something new, a compound called Caesarstone, developed in Israel from crushed quartz, resin and pigments. […] Is there anything Caesarstone can’t do? I doubt it. Like every other material used in Collaborations, this fabric-like stone showed an unusual side, opening the way to new plays of contemporary design imagination.”
