The new luxury at Milan 2013

- dedicated to "modern nomads, that travel through cities and continents without restrictions or boundaries," the designer explains.

It may be sparcling like a real a crystal glass, but is much more stable than crysrtal and made from polycarbonate, which only appears to have the texture and cut of crystal glass. Tokujin Yoshioka's Sparkle is an outsized cut-crystal-vase-like table and stool that will be presented by Italian design brand Kartell at Milan's Salone del Mobile 2013, starting tomorrow.

And another allusion of luxury - Rising from the trash of mid Europe as a relic: A piece originating from former Yugoslavian army beds heaped on military flea markets, questioning our aesthetic and political demands on design. The project is reflecting the delicacy of war-time, the perilous life of soldiers and those inherent memories. The springs of the mattresses, bare of all frills, simple and honest, representing our present: lively, vibrant and sexy. Will the future be golden?
