Leave it up to Karim Rashid to come up with inventive, creative concepts for typically mundane objects.
This time, it’s the champagne chiller. Rashid’s Globalight design for Veuve-Clicquot is absolutely stunning, albeit not the most practical. It is, in all effects, a pure study in the beauty and art of product design.
The giant “hoop” contains the champagne cool and provides a handle to carry it with. The LED-lighted inner ring glows from bright to dull, depending on how cold your champagne is. And… well, that’s it. There really isn’t much to this study in beautiful exorbitance.
