l: tord boontje r: ‘petit jardin’, studio tord boontje collection, 2006
designboom met tord boontje in london on september 20th, 2006.
he explores cues from nature, rich coloration and visual layering to
create lyrical and highly-detailed objects.he lived and worked
in london until 1995, and has since lived and worked in
bourg-argental, france. here the current studio tord boontje design
was founded in 2006.
db: please describe your style, like a good friend of yours would describe it.
it is layered. the layers shift, sometimes its really pretty and
uplifting, sometimes its more dark and scary like a scary story,
like an alfred hitchcock film! sometimes its very floral and
sometimes its much cooler and reduced and abstract
