Max Lamb

A modern day craftsman, Max Lamb is a furniture designer whose design sensibility is informed by his extensive knowledge of manufacturing techniques, respect for materials, and skill as a maker. A native of Cornwall, Max has been tinkering with objects and engaging with the physical landscape since he was a little boy, a curiosity that led to an MA in Design Products at the Royal College and subsequently the foundation of his workshop-based design practice. Lamb explores both traditional and unconventional materials and processes, blending experimentation and rationale to create furniture and products that possess a visual simplicity capable of communicating the obvious. Our collaboration with Max originates from the early days of DesignMarketo, but is mainyl visible through a table realised for Coffee&Friends (together with Lars Frideen) and his Glass Straw for Bar Alto 2012. There will be more!
