    Design has always surrounded Kouros Maghsoudi, who was born in the Frank Lloyd Wright suburbs of Chicago to parents who owned a boutique women’s clothing store and Persian rug galleries. After earning his degree in sustainable architecture and urban design and joining an environmental nonprofit, he debuted his own furniture collection, called Mehmooni, which draws directly from his Persian culture but is tinged with playful postmodern motifs that encourage people to indulge. A self-taught multidisciplinary artist and designer, Kouros's approach is steeped in an investigation of future cultures, gathering cues from fashion and metropolitanism. Kouros' fantasy is unapologetically tinged with sex, liberation, opulence, and self-indulgence.

     

    He recently debuted his own furniture collection, called  Mehmooni, that draws directly from his Persian culture but tinged with playful post modern motifs that encourage people to explore their hedonistic side. 

     

    Following which he designed the collection GO-GO AGE. "Go-Go" – derived from the French expression“à gogo” –means “in abundance, galore”. Looking to fashion and furniture, GO-GO AGE takes cues from the visual energy and pursuit of hedonism expressed during the 60s and 70s. Taking inspiration directly from the Space Age design movement, Kouros Maghsoudi’s GO-GO AGE is his take on space age design. The collection aims to encourage liberated behaviors and visceral responses through vibrant colors, bold forms, and the environment in which the pieces will be shown at large.
