Grand Repos & Repos Lounge Chair

Apr 18 12

I can't imagine the thoughts that must have crossed Antonio Citterio's mind when Vitra asked him to design a new type of lounge chair. It must have been daunting & challenging to do all that with a masterpiece like the Eames Lounge Chair in the collection. A bonus was undoubtedly the fact that he had worked together with Vitra on a regular basis for around 25 years.

The Bouroullec Brothers

Feb 8 12

Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec probably sound familiar if you have been following what goes on in the world of industrial design. The Bouroullec headquarters are housed in a former clothing warehouse in Belleville, north-east Paris. The two brothers share an office and their desks stand side by side in a space that is closed off from the rest of the studio overlooking the courtyard with north-facing light.

Sori Yanagi

Dec 30 11

The world has lost the pioneer of Japanese industrial design this week. I'm talking about Sori Yangi who died Sunday of pneumonia in a Tokyo hospital. He was 96 years old. He brought the simplicity and purity of Japanese decor into our everyday lives.
