ABOUT / A PROPOS


Born in Paris in 1986, Marta Bakowski is a French-Polish Designer specialized in the work of color and materials; two elements that she often places at the starting point of her projects. Graduated in Product Design from Central Saint Martin’s School (2009) and the Royal College of Arts (2011) in London, she then joined for two years the studio of Designer Hella Jongerius in Berlin as her assistant. In 2013, she returned to Paris to settle her own studio with a hybrid approach to design, working on both industrial, artistic and handmade projects involving craftsmanship. 
Her objects are produced by brands such as Roche Bobois, La Chance, Ligne Roset, Designerbox and Maison Matisse

The studio also involves a large part of its work in material, color and pattern research. 
In 2015, Marta Bakowski developped the Cosmos Concrete, a high-end decorative and fully customizable concrete which was used recently for the design of retail furniture for Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche department store in Paris.

WINGS

PIQUE FLEURS

Mireille’s wish was to rethink forgotten objects. My desire was to offer an object that tells a story. I wanted to invert the materials and highlight the silver metal by placing it on top. By choosing the polished-mirror finish, my idea was to design an object that plays with its reflections. A single flower is enough to give the illusion of a bouquet, since it is reflected on both sides of the object.

The winged shape of the flower picker recalls the silhouette of a butterfly which lands furtively on the table. The lines are clean and minimal, in order to let the flowers do the rest. Only an openwork pattern brings a nice rhythm to the surface of the wing and allows light to pass through, graphically fragmenting the image.
