German born artist and light objects designer, Ingo Maurer has been the recipient of many design awards and his work has been featured in numerous exhibitions, including the Centre Georges Pompidou, the Fondation Cartier in Paris, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Considered an outsider with rare artistic style, Ingo Maurer is an 'outsider', a designer rare to find: he adds provocation and fun to our ever so smooth design world.
