Please Karim, Stop designing, it's ugly again and again!!!

And plastic!!! You're living on a fancy life, for fancy people, I wish that one day someone never find you.
Raschid Balaouane   01.28.10
XO is related to Starck, and Rashid design is everything against Starck's pseudo-philosophy.

I don't get it. Rashid must have the best public relations ever. His designs are ugly. Dull. Overall bad design.


P.S. - am I getting censored again for saying this?

Hey Rashid 'bite me'
Flex   01.28.10
His body of work gives a pleasing plumpness and here he adds one more notch on his belt.
Do you think companies would produce his pink stuff, if they would not bee able to sell it?
