Jasper Morrison
Jasper Morrison is a British designer well known for his work in furniture, lighting, tableware and everyday products. Born in London in 1959, he studied design at Kingston Polytechnic, the Royal College of Art and Berlin’s HdK. In 1986 he opened his Office for Design in London, which remains his base. Jasper aims to design objects that sit naturally in a wide range of everyday situations, for a long and useful life. His approach to design is reflected in the book and exhibition Super Normal, which he organised in Tokyo in 2006 with the designer Naoto Fukasawa. He has published several books with Lars Müller Publishers, including A World Without Words, The Good Life, A Book of Things and Super Normal (with Naoto Fukasawa). He has curated and participated in many exhibitions in Japan, the USA and across Europe. His contribution to design has been recognised with membership of the Royal Designers for Industry, a CBE award in Britain and the Italian Compasso D’Oro award for his career.
