‘Smart-ologic Corian® Living’
17 March 2010 GMT 17:36
’Smart-ologic Corian® Living’ is a forward-thinking home concept designed by Karim Rashid based on the design versatility of DuPont™ Corian® along with hi-tech products from DuPont Building Innovations.
The concept will be unveiled in April at Milan design week.
’Smart-ologic Corian® Living’ will feature futuristic forms of DuPont™ Corian® made with bio-sourced sustainable components and recycled materials, proposed as possible options to meet the emerging technical and environmental challenges for interior design, architecture and building.
A selection of DuPont products designed to decrease the environmental imprint of buildings will also be incorporated into the concept. These include DuPont™ Tyvek® breather membranes and DuPont™ Energain®, a lightweight phase change solution to thermal mass in modern buildings.
All the areas of the home – kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, living room, garden – will be creatively interpreted by Karim Rashid and populated by a variety of smart design solutions in which DuPont™ Corian® is the key player and connecting element.
