Bisazza Featured Designer: Tord Boontje

by Bisazza on May 21, 2009 · 3 comments

All projects and installations designed by Tord Boontje, renowned Dutch designer, are inspired by the observation of nature. The concealed, almost invisible, usage of technologies is a distinctive characteristic of his creative approach, aimed at enhancing the poetic essence of his works and enticing the observer’s imagination and emotions.

For the Milan Furniture Fair 2009, held in April, Bisazza presented to collection “Digital Memories,” three new pieces of furniture designed by Boontje for the Bisazza Home Collection.

For this debut collaboration, each piece expressed his romantic and poetic style, storage units distinguished by functionality and essential lines, enhanced by new decorative mosaic patterns.

Recently, the Dutch designer has collaborated with many world-renowned companies committed to design, including Moroso, Swarovski, Meta, Fiam, Artecnica and Habitat.

A number of objects design by Tord Boontje are on show in various important museums and art galleries around the world, including the Victoria & Albert Museum and the British Council in London, the MoMA in San Francisco and MoMA and the Moss Gallery in New York.

Tord Boontje has received numerous international awards including the prestigious Elle Décor Design Awards in 2008.
