Jaime Hayon made a huge splash at the 2006 London Design Festival with hi collection of bathroom fixtures for ArtQuitect. The reasons are obvious: the pieces are extremely sculptural, fluid, and baroque but without being completely unmarketable. I could see a lot of people wanting these pieces who are not just art collectors, in other words. I highly suggest checking out his work because Mr. Hayon is also an accomplished artist, and he features some of his great drawings in the ArtQuitect catalog.
