molo has received an Editor’s Award for their exhibit at this year’s ICFF in New York. The judges were Arlene Hirst, Anniina Koivu of Abitare, Jessica Johnson of Azure, Stefano Casciani of Domus, Sam Grawe of Dwell, Gilda Bojardi of Interni, Chantal Hamaide of Intramuros, Susan S. Szenasy of Metropolis, Benjamin Kempton of Wallpaper*. This marks molo’s third award at ICFF. In 2004 molo was awarded “New Designer” and in 2006 molo received the award for “Body of Work”.
“This year I decided to use the Editor’s Award winners list as my road map. Editors from design publications such as Domus, Abitare, Dwell, and Metropolis determine 16 categories that comprise the winners circle. Categories include seating, carpeting, lighting, materials, accessories, textiles, and “body of work.”
Some of these winners also have the distinction of being very well branded. Not only are they producing superior products, but everything that speaks for the company–its booth, logo, catalogs, advertising, and website–is in lock-step quality. This is great design in total.
The winner of the “Best Booth” was molo, a six-year-old producer of expandable paper furniture and wall systems… Their crisp logo, beautifully photographed catalogs and artful videos on their website captures the poetic possibilities of their unique product.”
