Afroditi Krassa limited edition customised ercol originals stacking chair
Inspiration
"We may dream and plan as much as we want but life is unpredictable and we wanted to capture this and translate it onto a chair. Using clinical apparatus and colored dyes we have left it to gravity, time and chance to embellish the chair." - Afroditi Krassa
About
London‐based Greek designer Afroditi Krassa is extraordinarily proud of being an industrial designer, a term that many designers still render rather unsexy. Born in London in 1974, Krassa was raised in Northern Greece before returning to the UK in 1996 to complete a BA in Product Design at Central Saint Martins. An initial interest in graphic design was pushed immediately to one side as she discovered the playful approach she could apply to industrial manufacture. On graduation she was quick to gather attention for her rebellious attitude to product design; a stint at Priestman Goode was followed quickly by a position at leading design firm Seymour‐Powell as their first‐ever female designer.
Gaining a place at the Royal College of Art in 1999, she was tutored by, among others, Konstantin Grcic, Ron Arad and Jasper Morrison at a time when the school was going through a phase of peaked innovation and recognition, an experience that shaped Krassa’s attitudes and sensibility for years to come. Her spirited
and experimental use of materials set her apart from other graduates of the year and humour continues to play a large part in her work.
She went solo in 2002, setting up her eponymous studio from a space in Battersea and earning collaborations within a few years with Ligne Roset, Cassina and fashion label DKNY. A chance encounter with hospitality luminary Mourad Mazouz (of Momo fame) brought her to the fore of the world of restaurant and
hospitality design, creating pieces for Sketch and being invited to work on the initial design concept for pioneering sushi chain Itsu.
Delivering expertise beyond simple interior design, Krassa and her studio took the helm for all aspects of design and branding, from packaging and menus, to lighting, ambience and music. This holistic, 360‐degree approach to design has set her aside from other designers of her generation.
With clients including Dishoom, Curzon Cinemas, Café Rouge and Heston Blumenthal now under her belt, Krassa has taken design as a practical methodology and increased its potential manifold, adding depth to creative processes and realising that brands need to look beyond interior spaces to get their message communicated, a challenge she relishes with intense passion and
commitment.

Anthony Dickens customised Anglepoise® Type75 Mini Desk Lamp
Inspiration
Title: 'Refreshed' an Anglepoise desk fan.
Sometimes in dreams things are not always what they seem. They can get a little mixed up. Something that should be hard, is soft. Something that should be loud, is quiet. Or, something that should be warm is cold...
When George Carwardine first invented the Anglepoise lamp, produced by Herbert Terry & Sons - now Anglepoise Ltd and still run by direct descendant Simon Terry - they marketed the lamp as the 'energy saving lamp'. Why? Because before Carwardine invented the task light, enabling the light source to be moved into position exactly where light was needed, people would simply increase the wattage of their overhead and standard lamps to raise lumen levels. But, by taking the lamp directly to the area of activity an Anglepoise could use a much lower wattage bulb.
The same principle is applied here. When working at your desk, you don't need a hugely powerful fan swinging left to right, sometimes buffeting you and any paper on your desk and pointlessly blowing air around a room. You just need to position a quiet, soft breeze exactly where you need it most. In your face.
About
Anthony founded his London product and furniture design studio in 1998 creating objects that express simple narratives and re-imagine the everyday things that surround us. Initially designing and manufacturing his own range of lighting, Anthony’s work is diverse, working at the junction between product design and communications. Anthony has worked for Audi, Veuve Clicquot, Finlandia, Skoda and Red Bull bringing the essence of brands to life.

Samuel Wilkinson limited edition customised ercol originals stacking chair
Inspiration
"We wanted to create an intervention that highlighted the beauty of the ercol Stacking Chair something fantastical and unexpected as if from a Child’s dream. The result is the representation of a magic fabled animal, a chair that gives you happy and playful thoughts when you see it. Each leg has grown a foot from a different creature. These have been painted in a red rubbery finish to contrast the natural turned beech and leave the chair appearing to float above the ground." - Samuel Wilkinson
About
Samuel Wilkinson graduated in furniture and related product design at Ravensboure College of Art & Design in 2002. While at Ravensbourne Wilkinson won several design awards, including the RSA award and D&AD New Blood. He went straight into employment working for leading consultancies such as Tangerine, Fitch:London, PearsonLloyd, and Conran. During these years he worked on various award winning projects for leading clients such as British Airways, Audi, LG, Samsung, and Virgin Airways.

PearsonLloyd limited edition customised ercol originals stacking chair
Inspiration
"In our increasingly abstract, technical world, most of us have little contact or understanding of fundamental elements and process's such as soil, growth and decay. We wanted to find a symbol that referenced growth and life and was fundamental to the world we live in. Through a series of material experiments we came to iron. It's extraordinary to think that without iron at the core of our Earth there would be no atmosphere. Our iron core and it's magnetic field deflect the cosmic rays allowing Earth to maintain an atmosphere. These trees that make this chair not only replenish this atmosphere but turn the very same iron in our soil brown." - Tom Lloyd and Luke Pearson

Ab Rogers limited edition customised ercol originals stacking chair
Inspiration
'We love the honest, expressive, utilitarian nature of the ercol chair and the integrity of its detailing. Our proposal is to add functionality to the existing chair so that it supports activities beyond simply sitting.
To create a reading chair where you can rock as you read we introduced a set of skis to the bottom of the legs that animate the seat. We have integrated an organic LED light from LG Chemicals to give a radical light source for the seated person to enjoy.' - Ab Rogers
Created in collaboration with Mike Fairbrass and the RSHP Modelshop.

'Angelpoise'
"For a dreamy, ethereal feel, I sprayed the inside of the lampshade a pale sky-blue. Angel Blue was in fact the name on the can. I made a mask of the lamp's elegantly designed ventilation holes, and spraying through this made a beautiful impression on the lamp's base - just as Edward made a beautiful, lasting impression during his short stay here." - Tony Chambers

A chair representing the fusion between fashion and furnishing fabrics.
2319 comes from the bus number and two platform numbers of the transport the chair travelled on to its final creation space.
The fabric used is all from Liberty Art Fabrics Interior and Fashion collections. Many of the designs are no longer available making the chair a one off collectors piece for all lovers of Liberty Art Fabrics.
The main seat is covered in designs 'Cranford' and 'Eileen' designed by Grayson Perry and inspired by The BBC Drama 'Cranford' and 'The Scream' by Munch. The back two legs showing marbles and Dominos were designed by Michael Angove, the front two have designs again by Grayson Perry but also by Michael Angove, Mike McInnerney, Anj Smith and Tsumori Chisato.
The chair spokes underneath show prints by Mr Minagawa, Angie Lewin, Steve Parkes and Paul Morrison along with Liberty archive birds and snug, the first computer generated Liberty print. Grayson Perry 'Philippa' bicycles, Liberty archive Cars and Floral Mawston Meadow decorate the back rests. All prints were specifically chosen for their relationship to things you might do and places your mind may take you when relaxing on 2319.

“There should be a place where only the things you want to happen, happen”
Where the Wild Things Are: http://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/3020535
When we are young, the jungle is a mysterious place, a realm of adventure and the imagination. For our chair, we wanted to reference the magical worlds that you can disappear to in dreams.

Two students from Princes Risborough School have contributed their own homage to their music heroes with an adaptation of ercol’s classic Stacking Chair. Aspiring musicians, Keane Spenlé and Luke Page, who are both 11 GCSE students at Princes Risborough School, have referenced their music heroes in the piece. Luke says; “For me Hendrix represents more than just a guitarist, he is an artist. The way he painted his music was like nothing before him. Jimi is one of the most respected and recognisable figures of modern music. Although he isn't with us today his legacy is undeniable.
Keane says: “Bowie is accessible to everyone even to our generation. For a teenager born in '99 you wouldn't expect me to appreciate the rebirth of music from the 70's, however I feel that I can relate to Bowie more than the people of generations after him. He is a chameleon of the eras.”
Other elements that feature on the chair include melting vinyls symbolising Dali Clocks, Swirling Psychedelic patterns similar to those seen in "The Starry Night" and a Hans Christian Anderson quote "Where words fail music speaks".

Geometric shapes have inspired children and influenced architects for centuries. They have symbolic significance in dreams, in nature and in architecture. Here, they parametrically morph into one another, fading between timber, blue, and dark blue, reminiscent of wear after long term use.

About
I am a wordsmith, a mapmaker, a typographer, ragamuffin and freestyler. What I do makes me smile, and I am fortunate to be asked to do what I do for all and sundry, from the smallest personal piece to huge scale works.
I spent 15 years as a professional graphic designer freelancing across London and worked on major branding, interior and retail design projects as well as working with some of the leading design agencies in the world.
I have taken what I know as a graphic designer and incorporated that into my love of illustration. Its a happy combination.
My tools of the trade are Faber Castell pens and layout pads, a massive imagination, not taking life too seriously and great clients.
A good set of ingredients.

'From Function to Affection'
Watch the video here: https://vimeo.com/105966178
Using the human-like features of the Anglepoise lamps - their heads and jointed limbs - Paul Cocksedge has created an interactive piece that is both poignant and joyful.
The lights only come on when the two heads touch each other, and whichever way you position them for that touch, it will stir a visual memory of a child nuzzling up to its mother. It can be seen not only with humans, but across the natural world: two swans with their necks entwined, giraffes gently touching heads, a baby bear seeking protection with its mother.
This reconfiguration of the classic Anglepoise taps into the imagination whereby everyday objects take on human attributes, in this case to embody a gesture of caring and affection that is universal.

Samuel Wilkinson limited edition customised Anglepoise® Type75™ Mini desk lamp
Inspiration
"Following on the theme of 'A Child’s Dream’ we wanted to create a subtle and abstract visualisation for the Anglepoise lamp. By using pointillism, a technique to create an image using only points of colour, we have decorated the lamp with thousands of dots that graduate from a green base up to a black stem. The head has been punched to manipulate its form into an uneven fabric like material and then drilled with holes to leave the light shining through the rear." - Samuel Wilkinson
About
Samuel Wilkinson graduated in furniture and related product design at Ravensboure College of Art & Design in 2002. While at Ravensbourne Wilkinson won several design awards, including the RSA award and D&AD New Blood. He went straight into employment working for leading consultancies such as Tangerine, Fitch:London, PearsonLloyd, and Conran. During these years he worked on various award winning projects for leading clients such as British Airways, Audi, LG, Samsung, and Virgin Airways.

When thinking about the title 'A Child's Dream' the first thing that springs to mind is colour. How bright and vibrant a child's dream might be, full of bold colours and shapes and a great innocence. We have focused on those bold colours and shapes in an irregular, sporadic fashion, bringing playfulness and purity to the lamp.

When thinking about the title 'A Child's Dream' the first thing that springs to mind is colour. How bright and vibrant a child's dream might be, full of bold colours and shapes and a great innocence. We have focused on those bold colours and shapes in an irregular, sporadic fashion, bringing playfulness and purity to the lamp.

Faye Toogood limited edition customised ercol stacking chair
Inspiration
The transformation of the chair pursuits a new look of bold volumes and soft edges, a contrast to the original. Wrapping and knotting various types of ropes gives a rich texture around the chair followed by a thick industrial rubber coating finish.
About
Faye Toogood is a British designer. Her furniture and objects demonstrate a preoccupation with materiality and experimentation. All of her pieces are handmade by small-scale fabricators and traditional artisans, with an honesty to the rawness and irregularity of the chosen material.
With an academic training in the theory and practice of fine art, and a vocational background at the forefront of the magazine industry, Toogood approaches product design with a singular and acutely honed eye. Her highly sculptural work, while showing an astute respect for the past, is derived from pure self-expression and instinct.
Toogood’s objects are grouped together into her trademark numbered ‘Assemblages’. This allows her to avoid the formulaic, to experiment with the materials and processes that dominate her thinking at a particular time. With each Assemblage, she engages not only with the products themselves but also with the three-dimensional space in which they are exhibited, working across multiple disciplines to create a single body of work with an intuitive and unified narrative.

SIGNED IN AS :
When bidding on an auction item, if you enter more than the minimum increment for an item then your bid will be used for proxy bidding. This is how it works:
1. You enter the absolute maximum that you are willing to bid for an item.
2. jumblebee places a bid on your behalf, using the minimum amount required to make you the highest bidder, i.e. current bid price plus bid increment OR the reserve price, if there is one and it can be covered by your proxy bid.
3. jumblebee continues to bid on your behalf, whenever you are outbid by another member's bid, until your maximum bid is exceeded or the auction is won.
4. jumblebee will notify you by email if your maximum bid is outbid by another member and provided the auction is still running, you will then have a chance to enter a new maximum bid if you wish.
For example:
The current bid on an auction item is £100. The minimum increment is £10. You enter a bid of £150 (your maximum bid).
Using your bid, but increasing only by the minimum increment, jumblebee sets the current bid to £110.
Another person bids £130 but they are immediately outbid by jumblebee bidding on your behalf and the current bid goes up to £140.
The auction finishes and you have won the auction item at a price of £140.
1. You enter the absolute maximum that you are willing to bid for an item.
