Foundry at Cologne 2010!

Hooray Cologne! What’s better than a design fair in the spring? A design fair in the spring with Foundry! The design group known as Foundry, an excellent group of folks based in Singapore, just exhibited their new works in imm Cologne 2010 design fair. And wouldn’t you know it, they’ve shared a bit of that lovely tea-time with us! And now we share it with you!
