Jasper Morrison
Jasper Morrison is an English product and furniture designer. He gained a keen interest in modernist pioneers such as Buckminster Fuller, Jean Prouve and Le Corbusier. Visual restraint, high functionalism and constructive simplicity are hallmarks of his work.
Alessi was founded in 1921 to produce crafted metal accessories for the kitchen. Alberto Alessi launched Alessi into high design through collaborations with designers like Philippe Starck and his Juicy Salif citrus squeezer.
