Книга: Marcel Wanders: Interiors

The influential young Dutch designer Marcel Wanders, named Designer of the Year by the international home style magazine, Elle Decor for 2006, has produced many of the most iconic designs of the past two decades, including his famous Knotted Chair, the Egg Vase, Tableau Vivant and Patchwork plates. These works have earned international acclaim and continue to be produced by the biggest European contemporary design manufacturers, including B Italia, Bisazza, Poliform, Moroso, Flos, Boffi and Cappellini. Originally affiliated with the early-90s Droog Design collective, along with such other major international stars as Richard Hutton, Hella Jongerius and Jurgen Bey, over the years Wanders has broadened his horizons, so that nowadays he runs Moooi, a studio of multidisciplinary design that also incorporates architecture and the interiors that are the subject of this substantial new volume. Featured projects include the new Villa Moda store in Bahrain, which opened in February of 2007, and upcoming hotels in Miami and Los Angeles, as well as a villa in Jakarta. Other completed projects include the Lute suites in Amsterdam, the Blits restaurant in Rotterdam and the celbrated restaurant Thor at the Hotel on Rivington in New York.
