设计师Katrin Greiling接替伊东丰雄进行了米兰Kinnsand展厅的室内设计，这位设计师运用瑞典品牌的系列地毯与纺织品进行实验性设计。

其中一个系列作品名为“Structures”，而Kinnsand展厅则有着不同的展示风格，设计师将它们改造为具有中东气息的物件。

Greiling说：“我曾经是一位家具设计师，因此我很清楚地明白自己想要将这些物件改造成具有实用性的家具。”这位设计师目前在柏林工作，同时在瑞典与迪拜都曾经有过工作经历。

Designer Katrin Greiling took over the Toyo Ito-designed Kinnsand showroom in Milan to create a series of experimental forms with rugs and textiles from the Swedish brand.
Called Structures, the exhibition featured Kinnasand textiles arranged over two types of frame, to transform them into objects based on Middle Eastern traditions.
"With my background as a furniture designer, it was clear to me from the start that my goal would be to develop something that could be considered furniture to either sit or lay on," said Greiling, who is currently based in Berlin but has previously worked in Sweden and Dubai.

她解释说：“我参考了关于中东设计的相关资料，因此我想要将这些平面形体改造成三维物件。”

“这样一来，人们除了在上面行走，还能够用整个身体去感知它们的存在。”

因此，Greiling设计了两个粉刷了的金属家具系列作品，分别名为“Structures”和“Longarm Very Long”，这些框架系统组合在一起，形成11件不同类型的家具，分别有软椅、午休床、长凳、桌子等。

每个家具系统都由彩色的纺织品制作而成，其色彩非常丰富，既有白色，也有亮蓝色，还有珊瑚色、浅粉色，以及灰色。

"Drawing references from my years in the Middle East I decided to elevate and transform the surfaces into three-dimensional objects," she explained.
"The aim was to be able to experience the surfaces not just with your feet but with your entire body."
The two powder-coated metal frames created by Greiling, called Structures and Longarm Very Long, were combined to create 11 objects, including four different kinds of furniture – an ottoman, a daybed, a bench and a table.
Each frame was finished in a colour to complement the textile, ranging from white to brilliant blue, coral and softer pink and grey.

Greiling继续说：“参观者或坐或躺，可以充分感知其表面质感。”

“Longarm系列有一定的高度，为了表达轻盈的感觉，其中的每件家具都有着坚固的底座。”

这些作品放置于Kinnasand展厅内，覆盖着由品牌创意总监Isa Glink设计的纺织物品，该展厅由日本建筑师伊东丰雄于2014年设计。

"Structures invites the visitor to sit or lay down, to get comfortable," continued Greiling.
"Longarm reaches into the height of the space with its airy curtain fabrics. To contrast the lightness, each Longarm is grounded with a heavy rock on its base."
The pieces were arranged around the Kinnasand showroom designed by Japanese architect Toyo Ito in 2014, and covered with textiles from the brand's Space Tunes collection by its creative director Isa Glink.

这些纺织物色彩的选择也来源于伊东丰雄设计中的一些具体材料，例如木材、玻璃、石材。

Greiling说：“由于空间相对狭窄，因此必须同时运用让人感到平静的元素和有一定活力的元素才能让空间充满生机。”

“该系列作品由粉刷金属与手工羊毛制作而成，其质感相互呼应，既有软硬对比，也有哑光与高光的对比，还有轻盈与沉重的对比。”

The colour palette of the selected fabrics was directed in part by the "honest" materials of Ito's design – wood, glass and stone.
"As the space can be experienced as narrow it was important to both have calm elements as well as luminance a few metres into the space to create an organic movement," said Greiling.
"The quality of each of the materials – powder-coated metal and hand-knotted and woven woolen surfaces are accentuated in contrast to each other, soft to hard, matt to glossy, light to heavy."

“Structures”是Kinnasand Lab工作室的最新出品，该工作室由Glink和Kinnasand产品部门设计师于2017年共同成立。

该装置在米兰设计周期间展出，所属的展览区域以Kinnasand母公司Kvadrat的系列展品为主，其中包括来源于圆形材料品牌Really的最新展品。

在去年的米兰设计周期间，Greiling策划了“Everything Is Connected”展览，展出了挪威当地的工艺艺术品。

这位设计师的其他项目有展出于2011年斯德哥尔摩家具博览会的Design Bar，还有Bidoun系列沙发，后者被称为是当代第一件现代家具作品。

Structures is the latest output from Kinnasand Lab, an initiative set up by Glink in 2017 to explore collaborations with designers beyond the Kinnasand product range.
The installation was on show during Milan design week as part of a collection of events and exhibitions by Kinnasand's parent company Kvadrat, including the latest collection from its circular materials brand Really.
At last year's Milan design week, Greiling curated Everything Is Connected, an exhibition of Norwegian contemporary craft and design.
Her other previous projects include the Design Bar at the 2011 edition of the Stockholm Furniture Fair, and the Bidoun Series of sofas, which has been described as one of the first contemporary furniture design products from the UAE.
