The Object Award, Stouff designed by MAD Architecture & Design offers a new interpretation of a traditional usage.
For Marie-Lyne Samaha and Antony Daher, "Stouff
is an object which carries the weight of cultural heritage, a symbol of
a singular art de vivre which, through innovation and optimization of
its design, is bound to transcend boundaries."
