If you need a break from the Oscar madness this weekend, stop by Moss on Melrose. The store is showcasing a line-up of winning designs from contemporary designers including Gaetano Pesce, Tord Boontje, Hella Jongerius and Maarten Baas...
The selections, culled from Moss's vast collection of blue chip contemporary design, mirror the frivolity of award season in Los Angeles. Like those who will receive awards for their exemplary work in entertainment, Moss has lined up a selection of pieces that are regarded by critics as highly original and innovative. Some of the highlights include Gatetano Pesce’s XXXL Vase, Maarten Baas’s Clay Furniture: Clay Coffee Table, and the iconic Roma. Especially if you've never seen some of these pieces in person before, stop by and see them before March 31st.

What is that giant vase made out of?
I almost lost my lunch. Agreed - there have to be more appealing representations at Moss.
It reminds be of this freakish flower I saw hiking in Yosemite..out of no where was this hot pink flower, except the picture of the flower I took was way more beautiful-

I've blogged about Moss before and the love/hate relationship I have with some of their designs.
That vase is a definite example of the later.
Unless you live at Hollywood and Highland, "Oscar Madness" is pretty easy to avoid. The Academy's not dragging people from their cars and forcing them into the theater.
