Venice Design 2018: Pakistani architect to display Latoo inspired stools

VENICE: Pakistani people are blessed with talent and creative ideas. The designers, artists, writers, and painters of Pakistan are being recognized worldwide because of their great abilities.

Salman Jawed, an architecture graduate from the Indus Valley School of Art & Architecture, will be displaying his art at the prestigious Venice Design Week 2018.

Salman is the managing partner at Coalesce Design Studio, a Karachi-based team who is putting up an exclusive installation named ‘Daalaan’ at the event.

This distinctive design promises to take visitors on a journey to revisit their childhood. It contains illustrations hanging from the ceiling which represent the traditional games and ‘lattoo stools’. The idea is to help visitors rediscover their inner child, as they spin on the stools while gazing at illustrations.

‘Latto’ is basically a top spinning tool which is being used as a playing item by the children and it is very old traditional playing tool of the subcontinent.

The design work is being appreciated by the Venice design team and while talking to the media the Coalesce team head said that“The sheesham wood objects, spinning tops, hand-drawn art, and illustrations make for a playground where imagination has no bounds.”

Let’s have a look at the Latoo design stools:

We are simply loving the designs.
