STUDIOILSE
Ilse Crawford is a designer, academic and crea-
tive director with a simple mission to put human
needs and desires at the centre of all that she
does. As founder of Studioilse, together with
her multi-disciplinary, London-based team, she
brings her philosophy to life. This means cre-
ating environments where humans feel comforta-
ble, public spaces that make people feel at home
and homes that are habitable and make sense for
the people who live in them. It means designing
furniture and products that support and enhance
human behaviour and actions in everyday life. It
means restoring the human balance in brands and
businesses that have lost their way.
NERI&HU
Neri&Hu is an inter-disciplinary award-winning
architectural design practice based in Shanghai,
China.
With their product line, ‘Neri&Hu’ they seek al-
ternatives to the normative. Neri&Hu is the rein-
terpretation of the beauty in the raw material,
changing perceptions through what is revealed,
examining history and its path, or capturing an
ordinary scene in a snapshot.
