Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec
Who is Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec?
Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec are a design team formed by brothers from Brittany. In 2007 the firm's "North Tiles" design for Kvadrat in Denmark won the D - Design Forum AID Award and has been included in Cappellini's design collection. Their work has included a tree-house bedroom and a "table sprouting a bowl molded from a single piece of heat-welded Corian". The designs have been described as representing poetic practicality. "We don't want to make only functional pieces," Erwan Bouroullec noted.
The Bouroullecs work in Paris for clients including Cappellini, Ligne Roset, Habitat, Domeau & Peres, Authentics, EandW, Magis, Vitra and Gallery Kreo. They received the grand prix du jury international at the Paris Furniture Fair in 1998 e de la ville de paris, the best new designer award in New York in 1999, a Compasso d'Oro nomination in 2001 in Milan, and designed the interior for Issey Miyake’s APOC shop in Paris. In 2006, the Cneai invited them to design the "Floating House", an artist residence. In 2011, the Centre Pompidou-Metz hosts a major retrospective on the Bouroullec brothers. The show traveled to the United States and exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago.
