“An Artful Loo” Tribute to Graffiti Artist, Keith Haring
Inspired by the bold visual beauty and graphic imagery of Keith Haring’s artwork, we designed a powder room around Ascot’s new ceramic tile collection, carried by Hastings Tile & Bath, called “Game of Fifteen.” A tribute to the Master Graffiti artist, the tiles have anthropomorphic-like themes that are sharp and chic, graphic and poignant. With maze-like forms visually blending into each other, the images are hardly distinguishable, yet decipherable. At a distance, they form a pattern; up close, they form a story.
Also featured in Gail’s room are fanciful light fixtures by Leucos and Ingo Maurer, lyrical linens by Leron, ingenious pieces by Mod Mirrors, and Wendy Mark’s striking red “Cloud” paintings. The “Artful Loo” represents a passion for both design and art which ultimately finds its aesthetic confluence in the expression of Keith Haring’s whimsical statement of idea and function.
