I'm truly amazed by Sameh Ibrahim Emam's work - the Ice Keeper. It is a truly remarkable piece that manages to capture the urgency of the global warming crisis in a clever and attractive way. The hourglass shape immediately grabs attention, and the small city in the lower part is a wonderful way to bring the message home. The built-in holder and the water separation function are both very clever and practical features that make this piece even more special. Congratulations to Sameh Ibrahim Emam for winning the A' Design Award, and for creating a work that will surely stand the test of time.
