2010 Designer Furniture World Cup: Germany 2 – Spain 0

The careers of Konstantin Grcic and Patricia Urquiola could barely be more different; whereas Patricia Urquiola has steadily and confidently moved through the traditional Italian designer furniture producers, Konstantin Grcic has skipped from cult producer to cult producer with only the occasional diversion into the mainstream of European designer furniture producers.

Opening with a Hut Ab for Nils Holger Moormann, Grcic then complimented this with an  ES shelving system for Moormann before eventually taken a deserved 1:0 lead with an Osorom seating unit for Moroso.

Obviously taken aback by this unexpected foray into what is traditionally her territory, Patricia Urquiola seemed stunned, and Grcic used the opportunity to increase his lead to with a quick Tom Tom side table for SCP.

Despite Patricia Urquiola’s best efforts there was simply no way back.
