Design or art hero: Gaetano Pesce, not for one particular piece but more for his approach and complete body of work. He really succeeded in overturning the idea that the designer should give an ultimate answer. I find the way he blurred the borders between experimental and industrial design very relevant and inspiring.

Gradient tiles chair by Philipp Aduatz Edition of 4 + 2 A/P Dimensions: 90 × 50 × 50cm Materials: wood, plastering, metal, brick, 10.000 stoneware tiles glazed Each piece is unique. The Gradient tiles chair is an experimental chair designed and produced by Philipp Aduatz by using solely construction materials. The idea started after Aduatz completed the refurbishment of his studio when he had numerous building materials left which remained unused. Because he did not want to discard them he decided to create an experimental chair with them. The base frame is made from wood which was covered with a brick fabric and afterwards completely covered by plaster. Because the surface still had a tendency to crack it was reinforced with a glass fibre fabric. The finish is made by the application of 10.000 tiles, each placed by hand in a gradient pattern. It was both a challenging and new experience for Aduatz to use materials which are designed for an application in a large scale for an object in a smaller scale with a different requirement in precision. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution less
