The Fiore and Delta Stools may seem striking sculptural to some, but considering that they are both designs of the famous Karim Rashid, they are rather tame. Known for his flamboyant style and love of color, as well as all things modern, Rashid has had to dial it back a bit in order to please this particular manufacturer.
Known for its love of wood, the Fiore and Delta Stools fit in perfectly with Riva 1920's mission statement. Warm and fun, despite their traditional use of material, the designs are far from conventional. The Egyptian industrial designer has managed to imbue his personality and taste in every curve of the flower-shaped Fiore as well as the abstract Delta.
