How to make the best from a disaster

Ask Urquiola :)
When the Italian marble specialist Budri’s warehouses in Mirandola, northern Italy, were hit by last year’s earthquake in Northern Italy, the Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola decided to draw something positive from the disater and the result was the Earthquake 5.9 collection of wall and floor coverings, shelving and  tables in marble and onyx, created using hundreds of fragments of quake-struck slabs:

A luxury collection born out of the ingenuity of a great designer!
