Designers Tobias Wong and Josee Lepage have put together a holiday collection/ installation for c.i.t.e. in New York featuring a 6-foot diameter Verner Panton-like lamp made of Xmas tree ornaments. The collection is curated by both Josee and Tobias and is called All I want is more… says Tobi, “This is probably the last black and gold Christmas… we’ve milked 'decadence' as much as we can, this is our last hurrah outside of the commercial realm. We also wanted to dirty things up,... we’re across the street from Moss. After 9/11 there was no risk taking. This collection is naughty, nice, sophisticated...”. Unlocked European cel-phones, pipe screens, the world’s largest candy cane, more images after the jump. Tobias is busy, in addition to c.i.t.e. he was invited to show a new eye-level chandelier design with a mid-century twist at the upcoming Cooper Hewitt Triennial, is also working on an installation for Art Basel for a “99 cent to 99 million dollar art store” for Jeffrey Deitch and Sony has sent him a new camera to capture it all for Wallpaper magazine. We're looking forward to those pictures...
