“My quote ‘Design is about putting the right words in the right order’ is Motiva’s manifest in a way.”
–Karim Rashid

“This idea of statements, quotes, and verbal or literal syntax communication is beautiful and quite powerful and the letters on the grid, just the formalizing of it is also beautiful,” said Karim.
Karim’s Motiva features his personal ten quotes he has used for years about design and shaping culture. These quotes are powerful and inspiring, and when combined with the beautiful grid of letters on the Motiva, they become a true work of art. On this Karim commented, “My quote “Design is about putting the right words in the right order” is Motiva’s manifest in a way.”

“Art is about communication, it’s about sending a message, your views, and expressions. I was always very interested in this idea where technology crosses art, and when I met Motiva I thought to myself “Wow! This is exactly like the kind of work I believe in”, where you cross this boundary.” Karim describes his first reaction to Motiva.
“Motiva developed some beautiful technology, where you have something in your home that is beautiful to look at, but at the same time, there is a literal message of communication that is forever changing, forever in movement – as we are.” says Karim.
