Born in 1960 in Cairo, Egypt, Karim Rashid has since become one of the most world's most prolific designers. Rashid composes his designs based on a firmly-held belief that people could and should be living in a completely different world, one that is filled with contemporary and inspiring places and things. That’s no small wish, but Rashid is well on his way to creating the contemporary world he seeks.
He has over 3000 designs currently in production for AXO Light, George Kovacs, Alessi, Kundalini and more--including lighting, home accessories and furniture--and he is showing no signs of slowing down.
