Wander About.

Marcel Wanders is probably one of my favorite designers. His spatial interventions, products and sketches make me really wonder. Everything is quite clean and poetic yet bold.

I truly admire the reality of arts and crafts hand in hand in his design: he gives that personal touch everyone looks for in contemporary design, whether in space or objects.

"A designer can never be original. Everything I use or apply comes from the existing world. I simply give it a personal touch but I don’t invent anything. A designer’s greatest achievement is to change the perspective of things a little" – Jurgen Bey
