"  Following fashion&amp;#039;s optimistic dash away from drab monochrome were color-block pieces dressed up in a Rubik&amp;#039;s Cube riot of happy hues. You can see the trend in the wonky Stack drawers we love, but Cappellini&amp;#039;s new version of Sistemi was our second- favorite example. It&amp;#039;s their in-house design team&amp;#039;s classic shelving system redone with tantalizing clashing color doors and back panels; a cork option adds even further texture. So Gerhard Richter color chart!  Speaking of updating the classics, ceramics continued to occupy creative minds. Dutch design prince and Moooi cofounder Marcel Wanders, who sauntered around the fair in a pearl necklace, commissioned the seventeenth-century Dutch company Royal Delft to craft vases turned on their sides and bowls with dandy feather-shaped handles. Not to be left out, the other venerable Dutch ceramic company, Royal Tichelaar Makkum, gave hot designers free rein over a redux of their esteemed seventeenth-century flower pyramids, waist-high ceramic sculptures punctured with holes to stick flowers in. Our favorite interpretations belonged to Jurgen Bey, who chose to stack up old buckets in a comment on daily decadence; and to Studio Job, who paid gilded homage to coffee and humanity.  Karl Lagerfeld would love the quilting popping up on the most unexpected housewares. Established &amp;amp;amp; Sons (which, under the guidance of its cofounder, Alasdhair Willis, Stella McCartney&amp;#039;s husband, has risen to the top in just five years) let Spanish wonderboy Jaime Hay\u00F3n dream up the ultracool Tudor Chairs, a series of six quilted leather dining chairs inspired by the six wives of Henry VIII, some with armrests and flashy, disco gold legs. Over at Moooi, fellow Spaniards H\u00E9ctor Serrano and CuldeSac displayed a round, hanging light referencing the classic Chester Sofa in black polstytrene molded into the shape of quilting fabric.  Young female designers, of whom there were, delightfully, more this year, got behind dollhouse style, an alternative to the usual boys&amp;#039; club minimalism. Tineke Beunders, 26, of the Eindhoven, Netherlands\u2013based talented twosome Ontwerpduo, celebrated &amp;quot;Barbies, playmobil, dollhouses...&amp;quot; for When I Was Little..., a vanity table. The three young Swedish women of Jantze Brog\u00E5rd Asshoff, who have worked with IKEA, heckled oppressive, patriarchal dining rooms with giant keyholes cut voyeuristically into their cobalt blue cupboard, while Nika Zupanc proposed our beloved Lolita series of frilly, bonnetlike lamps that give off a glow as liberating as a bouffant in a boardroom.
