To describe Marcel Wanders as a prolific designer is almost selling him short – the man, in short, is a genius.
His work is often described as quirky with elements of nostalgic fantasy. There’s no understated talent here – Wanders has worked across a diverse range of product and interiors for international companies such as Flos, Alessi, Puma, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, MAC Cosmetics, Cappellini, B&B Italia, and Moroso as well as collections for Bisazza. He’s also overseen architectural projects like The Mondrian South Beach Hotel, Miami and private commissions for uber luxe residences across the globe (like the amazing private residence in Taipei, pictured above).
But it’s with his own, now iconic, brand Moooi that Wanders has, quite literally, helped to define and change the face of modern design, bringing together the best international creatives (Studio Job, Front and Maarten Baas to name just a few) on ground breaking and edgy furniture, lighting, product and decor collections.
When it comes to collectable designers, we don’t think you can top Marcel Wanders. Get your hands on his designs and the Moooi collections at Space Furniture.
