Karim Rashid

[goldfall]

he is just throwing big words and acting like a 'pompous'....

"I need to be doing new things"

[mythicalness]

didn't go to the pit lecture at Carleton, fuck this prick

[surfaxion]

what a fag

[yusufpreece]

this is like having a very dynamic art history lesson..

[codinggloworange]

I love his work, but I don't believe there's such thing as originality in this day and age..nothing is new. As an architecture student, I know everyone wants to be inovative but even he himself said that he gets inspiration from technology, technology that was designed by someone else. His designs are very interesting, and beautiful, but you can't completely be 100 percent original. Like picasso said, "a bad artist copies, a good artist steals." and why is he taking credit for design theory?

"I think I would be bored to keep repeating myself. I don't think I repeat myself at all, I do not think. I hope not." LOLOL

[NitekMuscle]

He should collaborate with Sony and again with Apple on some of their products.

[nazirdjon]

i tend to dislike designers. not my area. all of them seem to be either pinkish , or girlish, or too urghhh blahh

[fiascotc]

I have seen VIP lounge in Istanbul that designed by that guy. A first year design student is better on details than him. The space was absolutly rubbish with loads of bad details and combinations. That guy is a marketing miracle

 Pink Crabs?!!!!

[apolanco19]

He has the most beautiful Serbian wife, have seen them together in Chelsea. Goes to show even his women are very well designed ;-)

[oliverkray]

I like his works!!

[gladitsnotme]

Although the things he was saying are true, the way he says them is so incredibly pretentious! How full of himself, it's a turn off to an otherwise likable designer.

[themodernageep]

@gladitsnotme it can get really tedious when people start throwing the word "pretentious" around. Karim is being interviewed and he is giving his point of view towards the questions he's being asked. Yes, he's very articulate with his words. He's not going out of his way telling people on the streets how great he is. Does everyone really have to be formal and modest when talking about their craft? You're watching this because you're in one way or another interested in him and/or his work.

[designandsketch]

learn from him: how to become a seller of your stupid thoughts..

[OrayBardWee]

Hear hear!

[Dithulusutsamotho]

What rubbish! He even insulted the mighty Rolling Stones! He says design shouldn't be just pretty and decorative, but if you look at all his rubbish work, it is all "pretty", pink shit!

[kairilim]

I very much agree on his talk esp 5.10 onwards. I love original people and people that design for the sake of himself. art is what you think it's beautiful.

[marianstefan1]

he has a brother

[DenaHamed]

True, Hani Rashid, co-owner of Asymptote architecture. I prefer his brother. He seems more genuine than Karim

[sailman10]

Hani is My best friends dad and if you want proof just reply

[ch4ot1ch4ot1c]

U SMELL LIKE POOOP

[worldtraveldreamer]

i saw him yesterday. He choose one of my dad's paintings to be in an exhibition, and then he was to the opening of it in Copenhagen.

He was also DJ that evening.

it was pretty cool :D

[ewetoobsux]

Karim's work is really overrated and quite banal. It's incredible how full of himself he is. He makes a mockery of the world of industrial design.

[as04qg]

lol He's the Zoolander of industrial design

[as04qg]

lol hes so intriguing..lol kinda like in a ZOOLANDER way.

Lol hes kool to talk to I've met him..and his work is actually very influential especially to th eindustrial design profession..

But hes a self promoter and some times the way he speaks reminds me of Zoolander lol.. "really really good-looking people" ! lol

[varonmacho]

Genious !

[teethar2]

stupid pinky fag - that's who he is...

[damstraight1]

This guy makes me vomit. What a pretentious queen! He made Pink MASCULINE? HE'S TALKING SUCH SHIT! He did this and he did that.....
