Big Bang by Foscarini. January 23, 2007

Is it weird to enjoy the interior design, rather than the food, in a restaurant? When I was in Paris recently I went to a Japanese restaurant that had some amazing pendant lights. I grabbed this photo, and I’ve been trying to figure out who designed it ever since.
It turns out that it’s called the Big Bang, made by Foscarini, and designed by Enrico Franzolini & Vicente Garcia Jimenez. It’s pretty expensive, but if you see one in a real enviroment it’ll blow you away. The photos don’t do justice to it’s design or it’s large size.
It’s available from places like Made in Design and Purves in Europe.
