nyc odyseey back to abc - collaboration...

Italian designed, African made, the outdoor collection by Moroso took my breath away.  This widely imaginative and color rich collection is a collaboration between expert designers, and traditional African craftsmen.  Each piece is hand dyed and woven from the same material used to make the local fishing nets in Dakar, Senegal.  The color and pattern in these pieces is intoxicating, and to see the local culture and tradition honored so, was amazing.
