Chicago Tribune
In her review of the 2005 International Contemporary Furniture Fair, Karen Klages quoted Matt Soorikian about Soorikian Furniture’s new Wall Panel System:
This year, some of the most interesting products weren’t furniture, but rather big and small strokes of modern architecture. Everyone from artists to architects played with the very bones of the modern American home. …
Georgia based architects/designers Matt and Karen Soorikian unveiled their wall panel systems from which shelves and furniture (also of their design) can be floated and cantilevered. “It’s architecture to go with your furniture instead of the other way around,” explains Matt Soorikian, who is also the fabricator behind them.

2004 Good Design Awards
Soorikian Funiture is the recipient of two 2004 Good Design Awards. The Double Curve Screen and the Modular Media Console were selected by an international panel of jurists. The pieces will be on display at The Chicago Athenaeum-Museum of Architecture and Design later this year. The Chicago Athenaeum’s GOOD DESIGN program was founded in Chicago in 1950 by Edgar Kaufmann, Jr., former curator of the MoMA, with the participation of some of America’s most important designers: Eero Saarinen, Charles and Ray Eames, Alexander Girard, George Nelson, Florence Knoll, Harry Bertoia, Finn Juhl, and Russel Wright-the pioneering greats of American and modern design. GOOD DESIGN is the world’s oldest and most celebrated awards program that bestows international recognition upon designers and manufacturers for advancing new and innovative product concepts and originality and for stretching the envelope beyond what is considered standard product and consumer design. We are thrilled to be recognized by this prestigious organization.
