The Atlantan Magazine profiles A-List Designers

More of Bill's favorites:

Zulu baskets from reclaimed telephone wire

Siggi and Egmund Dedekind own a farm in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Concerned by rampant unemployment among their Zulu neighbors, the Dedekinds formed a small crafting cooperative to provide jobs for the unemployed and to revive fading Zulu crafting traditions.  Using a weaving pattern learned from an aging Zulu woman some 100 miles away, more than 200 Zulu men and women are now earning supplemental income by crafting baskets from colorful reclaimed telephone wire.
Vintage Fornasetti
Milanese painter, sculptor, and interior designer Piero Fornasetti designed more than 11,000 products. During his career he created a visual vocabulary that is instantly recognizable, filled with whimsy and wit.

Fornasetti's graphic art often re-worked a single idea over and over again, allowing his imagination run free to develop new concepts.  His most famous production line is based on an image of Lina Cavalieri found in a 19th century French magazine. Originally four plates were designed by Piero Fornasetti - the plate series now has 350 variations.  We only use vintage pieces that bear a Fornasetti trademark.
