DESIGNERS’ DESK<br />

FURNITURE & ACCESSORIES EUROPE<br />

BN: The industry has grown a lot and expanded out, FAE: What is your dream project?<br />

but of course, there has been a slight shrinking with BN: I don't have one dream project but there is so<br />

global markets struggling. much that I would love to design, from a pen to a car, a<br />

mobile phone to an entire building. My ideas are<br />

FAE: What is the greatest appraisal you have ever<br />

received from anyone?<br />

limitless.<br />

BN: That would be a manufacturer believing in my FAE: Whose work do you like the best among your<br />

design and investing the in brands in future on my contemporaries and why?<br />

ideas. With this comes a lot of pressure and BN: There are so many but I guess I like aspects of<br />

expectation but that's all part of the job. When my different designers, like Ron Arad's experimental<br />

first production design was confirmed I was only 25 playfulness, Ross Lovegrove's form refinement,<br />

and a group of Italian businessmen invested<br />

thousands into the idea of a wall light. That is indeed<br />

a great appraisal and thankfully the design is still in<br />

production and selling well.<br />

Starck's storytelling etc.<br />

A dual layered wall light featuring a dimple like<br />

undulation. The two thermoformed diffusers, one<br />

transparent the other translucent, mimic one<br />

another as they morph into their organic form.<br />
