AndyMartin to present Gridspace project at London Design Festival
London-based designer AndyMartin, in collaboration with the Venetian-based plastics product company PPP, will present his new project called Gridspace during the London Design Festival.
Launched during the Salone del Mobile 2012 in Milan with a solo exhibition, the Gridspace design is a combination of geometry and transparency of plastic. With the inherent restrictions of a grid form, the designer has attempted to find the emotion through the raw liquid material of ABS and acrylic plastic in
the transparency and colour. Form plays a secondary role in delivering an object, particularly in this project.
Gridspace can be altered by the user by inserting colour square plugs into the grid to provide a concrete shape to imagination. The Gridspace will be presented within Super Design Gallery in Super Brands London during the London Design Festival, being held from 14-23 September.
Established in 2000 and based in London, AndyMartin’s studio is a new generation design practice. The studio incorporates craftspeople, furniture designers, product designers and futurists.
PPP was founded in 1951 in Venice as a laboratory for the processing of acrylic sheets, one of the first companies in the Veneto to work with this innovative material. It offers a range of open cell system ceilings.
