I am an unapologetic lover of pink, biomorphic shapes, and shiny stuff. When I saw the above image of Karim Rashid's lastest design venture—the interior of Kurve, Andy Yang's new Thai restaurant in the East Village—my first response was: "when can I move in?" Karim Rashid is one of those love him or hate him type of designers: a bit Jetsons-esque, neon, and overly bulbous in his aesthetic. I noticed a number of vitriolic responses to his puffy pink design for Kurve; lots of people don't dig on pink or soft forms or non-traditional interior spaces. Whatever. I'd love to sip on a gigantic pink umbrella drink while feasting on delicate spring rolls, sitting in a big soft cozy pink chair, and discussing the timeless appeal of Barbarella.

I could totally see her floating around and fondling her Tongue Box in that space. But is there really enough room for Pygar to spread his wings and relax?
