Brodie Neill is a name synonymous with innovation.<br />

In his hands form meets perfection. An Australian<br />

by birth, he is a dynamic designer capturing the<br />

attention of the international design scene with his new and<br />

exciting use of form. His rapid rise to success has resulted in<br />

an impressive collection of international achievements and<br />

an extensive list of prestigious clientele.<br />

His underlying interest in form was first explored at the<br />

University of Tasmania followed by a progressive digital<br />

approach developed during his Masters degree at the<br />

Rhode Island School of Design. His career- graph rose<br />

rapidly after his successful stint with top brands in New<br />

York.<br />

Brodies progressive approach has created the muchcelebrated<br />

design E-turn and the @Chair; a design so<br />

enigmatic to be honoured as Time <strong>Magazine</strong>'s most<br />

influential designs. Other projects of acclaim are the<br />

Remix chaise longue and the Reverb chair- both<br />

progressive designs that fuse material form with<br />

advanced technologies. A gem of creativity, he had<br />

partnered with the late fashion maverick Alexander<br />

McQueen for ICFF New York, back in 2009.<br />

However, his most recent stand out design Clover - a<br />

sculptural light form inspired by nature was<br />

launched at last year's Milan <strong>Furniture</strong> Fair.<br />

Eventually, Brodie established his current<br />

studio in London's East End, where he<br />

applies his seamless, fluid-like<br />

designs to a range of objects<br />

from production items to<br />

special edition pieces. With<br />

an extensive record of<br />

international exhibitions,<br />

Brodie continues to attract<br />
