miuccia prada's office

From Deluxe: How Luxury Lost Its Luster by Dana Thomas:

I was taken to a room I had read about often. It is officially Miuccia Prada's office, and it is as stark and contrived as her designs: poured concrete, a slew of orange and yellow molded plastic Eames chairs; and, sticking up in the center of the floor, a metal tube slide - by artist Carsten Höller - that runs three floors down to the parking lot and is titled The Slide No. 5. Prada has whizzed down it when asked to by reporters.

If the name Carsten Höller seems familiar, it's probably because you saw photos of the crazy amazing slides he installed at London's Tate Modern in 2006. Note to self: if you ever become a Lex Luthor-type, make sure to commission your own Höller office slide.
