Etch by Tom Dixon: the new 100cm diameter version will be launched at Multiplex


British designer Tom Dixon will host Multiplex, a pop-up viewing theatre, exhibition, shop and restaurant, during next month's Milan Furniture Fair. Working in collaboration with Blackberry, the designer will use the 400m² space to showcase his new collection across six interactive environments, including a science lab and hotel lobby.

Products on show at the event will include BULB, a specially-designed low energy lamp; a newly expanded version of the ETCH light; a sturdy, low-cost iron chair called CAST; and ROLL, a contract-friendly worktable on a mobile cast iron base which has been designed to help lone waiting staff reconfigure their tables with minimal fuss.
