Jasper Morrison is a distinguished English product and furniture designer known for his refined, understated aesthetic. He famously believes that “objects should never shout.” He has received the CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire), the second-highest honor in the UK after a knighthood or damehood, awarded for his notable contributions to design. He also holds the RDI (Royal Designer for Industry) title, the highest accolade in the UK for excellence across diverse design disciplines, recognizing his influence and impact on contemporary design.

These carefully chosen and crafted pieces represent a considered mix of the esoteric and the highly pragmatic. Many of these simple things reflect the hand of the artisan or the quiet genius of the inventor. They are useful in ways that are difficult to quantify but, if pressed, we would say they make life a little more efficient and a lot more beautiful.
