About this product

Year of Launch: 2023
What do we know about Karma? For many it is the great law of cause and effect. To get what one wants, one must represent and be worthy of such things. Known as Pali Kamma, an Indian religion and philosophy, Karma is “the random law of the universe whereby good or bad deeds determine the future mode of an individual's existence”. So how does it apply to design? How do we represent an ancient Eastern philosophy that talks about receiving what we have sown in the world? For Gino Carollo, it is an investigation into "who we are" and this, in today's fast-paced society, is performed through mirroring, or in his world, the mirror. Starting from different shapes and characteristics, Karma by Gino Carollo is a way of looking at the world we live in, at what we want to represent and at our existence as a function of this. From small to large, long to wide, circular or abstract,Karma pulls different things out of different shapes and sizes, finished to the highest standards. Depending on the size, there are different color combinations of the mirror: bronze and smoked, transparent and bronze, transparent and smoked. Karma is about understanding our actions, and in our Karma, it is about understanding ourselves even better.

Born in Vicenza, he began his career in the field of Industrial Design in 1990, also working as an art director with prestigious Italian and international companies in the furniture sector. He was commissioned by Assarredo to design the setup and coordinated image for the Italy Pavilion at the International Furniture Fair in Cologne in 1992 and 1993, and also in 1992, the Italian Pavilion at the Interieur fair in Vienna. In 1993, he took part in the Dirattan exhibition in Milan and in 1994 in the "Progetti e Territori" exhibition at the Abitare il Tempo fair in Verona. Some of his products have been exhibited at the MoMA in New York. During the same years, he received the Du Pont award in Cologne, the Young Design award in Milan, and the Casaidea award in Rome. In 2012, he won the Interior Innovation Award in Cologne for the "Bookless" product by Interlübke. In 1999, he founded Studio28 Gino Carollo with the goal of creating a qualified team to support companies in the industry. Product design, combined with engineering and the creation of models and prototypes, proved to be key tools that enabled the studio to achieve concrete results over the years and to establish long-term collaborations. In recent years, Studio28’s industrial design activity has expanded with the addition of new areas of expertise, particularly in the field of architectural design for exhibition spaces, showrooms, and corporate identity.
