Herman Miller + Magis: Konstantin Grcic
This is the first in a series of posts on the designers we’ve welcomed into the Herman Miller family through our new relationship with Magis. Konstantin Grcic, who is based in Munich, is the designer behind the beautifully faceted Chair_One – a piece that now sits in museum collections all over the world.
You’ll find a slideshow of Grcic’s designs over on Discover. Below is an interview done by Crane TV (a beautifully edited online video-magazine) when Grcic won Design Miami’s Designer of the Year award last year. In the interview Grcic talks about designing the iconic Chair_One. It offers a great insight into his process – and his studio which is filled to the brim with prototypes of his work.
For more on his Munich workspace check out Dwell’s excellent slideshow, written by Sally McGrane and shot by Oliver Mark. The portrait above is from the slideshow.
