Tom Dixon

about

British designer Tom Dixon (1959- ) is one of the leading lights of English industrial design. A self-taught welder, Dixon opened the shop Space to sell his early designs, then worked as head design for Habitat in the UK before founding his own eponymous firm in 2002. In 2004 he formed Design Research Ltd which controls Tom Dixon and the Finnish design firm Artek. He has done a number of chairs and lamps for the tony likes of Italian firm Cappellini, and the work he's done under his own name, like the Screw Table, Wire Series of chairs, and Beat pendant lights have received significant acclaim.
