My final spotlight is on East London based South African born furniture designer Ryan Frank. In asking around if anyone knew a good 'carpenter', a friend of mine, who's linked to Ryan through the Burning Man community (and projects), suggested I make contact. What a treat to discover Ryan is a very talented and well established, free-range furniture designer. Materials used to create his unconventional, unique and functional range of eco-sensitive furniture objects are often reclaimed, recyclable and of a sustainable nature. The featured product is Ryan's Isabella Stool made from Strawboard (compressed straw) and wrapped in soft 100% felted wool. Love the colours!
This blog has been created to share design ideas. It's our homework. We have an idea, which we think some of you will like. It isn't fully formed, so instead of trying to explain with many words, we'll update you with the homework: the process behind the big idea. In the spirit of Rolf Harris - can you tell what it is yet?
