Erwan and Ronan Bouroullec
Bouroullec brothers were both born in Quimper, France during the 70s. Erwan, the youngest, was born in 1976 when Ronan was only 5. The two brothers are connected by a special bond thanks to their natural inclination towards the research for perfection. They became famous thanks to their "Disintegrated Kitchen" presented at Paris Salon du Meuble in 1997.
They collaborate with important companies such as Kvadrat, Kartell and Magis gaining a wide public and critic recognition: their works obtained different international prizes such as the "Designer New Award" at New York International Contemporary Furniture Fair (1999), Finnish "Juhl Prize" (Copenaghen, 2008) and two "Best of Best Red Dot Design Award" in 2005 and 2009.
Bouroullec brothers took care of many architectural projects such as the Floating House in 2006, Camper stores in Paris and Copenaghen during 2009 and Casa Caper hotel and restaurant in Berlin (2010).
At present Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec collaborate with the most important interior design companies: Vitra, Kvadrat, Magis, Established and Sons, Kartell, Ligne Roset, Issey Miyake and Cappellini.
The Venetian company was born in 1976 and in few years it astonished the market with original furniture pieces, up-to-date materials and innovative techniques.
1984 is the year of Step ladder. Initially it was completely ignored by the design field judged not worthy of a furniture store; in the following years this judgement turned out to be completely wrong since Magis sold a million copies of this ladder becoming one of their most acclaimed classic piece coming with a design which has been copied worldwide by top manufacturing companies.
The 90s welcomed new famous co-workers such as the designer Jasper Morrison, who created classic iconic products which appear now inside museums such as MoMa, New York. Lyra stools and Bombo, the extraordinary success of Stefano Giovannoni, were created during those years. From this moment on, the multiple Magis achievements brought them to display their own products in the most famous contemporary art museums: London, Hamburg, New York.
Since 2000, the year of Air-Chair designed by Morrison, Magis has been producing furniture items made of plastic or recyclable / recycling materials and using techniques such as gas injection or rotational moulding. In 2004 Me Too collection was born, a collection designed for children from 2 to 6 years. Many of these products won and still win several internation prizes such as Compasso d'Oro in 2011 for Steelwood Chair, a project by Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec.
