The Furnishings Of A Wanderer
We’re always on the hunt for outstanding local designers and Alexander Lotersztain caught my eye on D*Hub www.dhub.org with his exceptional designs that balance form, function, environment and user perfectly. Lotersztain is a genuine global nomad, and his urbane furniture designs that buzz with the contemporary energy of their surroundings attest to that. Born in Argentina to Polish parents, he travelled extensively as a child, and he eventually migrated from Buenos Aires to Brisbane when he was 19. Graduating from the Queensland College of Art, Lotersztain has received many prestigious awards since.
Lotersztain works globally, designing lighting, indoor and outdoor furniture, and objects and interiors. His work might already be familiar with you, his studio was responsible for every aspect of the interior, image and branding of Limes Hotel www.limeshotel.com.au in the Valley, the first Australian member of the Design Hotels www.designhotels.com organisation. As well as working with major design companies, Lotersztain is the lead design consultant for the In Africa Foundation, which strives to provide representation for skilled artists and craft workers in Africa by guaranteeing an ongoing marketplace for their work.
Lotersztain has his own design firm based in Brisbane, visit the website: www.derlot.com
