Libeskind has drawn a tremendous amount of inspiration fromnatural geologicalformsincluding crystals, gems and natural rock formations. For theMoroso collection, the design is informed by theasymmetrical faceteddesign of gems to create both a sculpture piece for the home or office and connect to Libeskind’s large oeuvre. The collection represents a synergy between the complex geometries of Libeskind and the well-known expertise of Moroso.
