During
his
illustrious
career,
simplicity
as
a
philosophy is something he has explored in retail
designs for Jil Sander, Calvin Klein, Christopher Kane
and

various
monasteries,

musea,
residential projects, hotels and now a complete
contemporary bathroom collection for COCOON.
British architect John Pawson CBE, who founded
his firm of the same name in 1981, is often
hailed as the father of modern architectural
minimalism. Although a title he would most
likely poke fun at, for almost forty years Pawson
has
championed
nothingness
as
the
most
straightforward form of beauty.
