Yii is a Taiwanese design exhibit that seeks to combine the traditional with the modern. Located in Milan right now, the show consists of 50 pieces from 15 designers. My favorite is an oriental metal design converted into a modern workman's desk lamp. The whole inside of the lamp is a golden metal scene of dragons and swirling clouds that looks like it belongs in a 5th century Asian palace. Then when you see the whole lamp, it gives you an unsettling feeling.
