Project: AEA02 - Mouse, bottle opener |
|
Known for such iconic designs as his "Ball Chair" (1966), "Pastil Chair" (1967)
and "Bubble Chair" (1968), Finland's Eero Aarnio (1932) is one of the leading
innovators in contemporary Scandinavian design. He interests me because I see in
him a sort of childlike elder, an eternal boy, always ready to grasp the playful
and paradoxical aspects of the design world. In short, a sort of "Scandinavian
ludicism" far from the austere professionalism prevalent in Northern Europe
design. The projects we're presenting today are the first in a series of objects
that is destined to be expanded.
(Alberto Alessi)
