Form&Seek London Design Fair2017​
​
Form&Seek will be part of Dutch Pavilion at London Design Fair on 21-24 September 2017
Form&Seek exhibitions always show a consideration to new crafts, material and processes.
With this upcoming show Form&Seek explores the theme of "Openness" where we focus on what designers with a vision of across borders and cultures, make and design in order to shift attitudes and cultures for the a more inclusive future. Form&Seek explores the idea of Dutch design, not through a national lens but as an attitude and way of thinking.
​​For the first time ever Form&Seek launches its own collection during London Design Festival as well as a producing and selling platform, enabling consumers and retailers to purchase original and innovative crafted goods from a curated collection founded and run by designers.
​
The Form&Seek collection focuses on new developed processes and contemporary, globally local craft techniques. Interesting, innovative materials and processes play a key role in the pieces by Form&Seek. Each item tells a story through the way it has been made or the impact it has on our daily lives.
Our new collection expands on a wide range of crafted products from conventional products prototyped with new technologies to products that play with natural formations and uses of material. Each thought provoking, poetic design object has a strong character and personality with the personal mark of the maker.

Phoebe Kuo is a studio woodworker and designer from San Francisco, currently based in Evanston, IL. Her site-specific sculptures employ the technique of coopering—traditionally used in barrel-making—in which solid wood is cut into pieces, beveled, and reassembled into curves. This careful, time-intensive labor reflects her ongoing project as a queer woman of color to construct a coherent identity from disparate parts. She received her BS in Product Design from Stanford University and her MFA in 3D Design from Cranbrook Academy of Art.
