An ode to an arch
Identity|November 2020
Lebanese interior architect and product designer Richard Yasmine presented his latest collection, After Ago, at 5VIE D’N’A – a hybrid event in Milan featuring the works of various creatives and artists within a live and virtual setting, with the aim to imagine a better world.
An ode to an arch

The hybrid collection is fundamentally an ode to the arch, inspired by the Postmodern and Memphis movements in design with a twist of the graceful lines found in Art Deco and the monolithic sobriety of Brutalism. The collection asserts that by merely using a simple line, one can create an infinite range of objects that are both thoughtful and minimal.
