Marcel Wanders


Marcel Wanders (* 2 July 1963 in Boxtel/Netherlands), graduated in 1988 from the School of the Arts, Arnhem. Marcel Wanders first attracted international attention in 1996 with his "Knotted Chair" for Droog Design; and hasn't looked back since. In 2001 he established his own Marcel Wanders studio and in 2004 became Art-director and co-owner of Moooi. Marcel Wanders has cooperated with some of Europe's most important manufacturers including B&B, Boffi and Kartell with whom he created the polycarbonate stool Stone. Wanders also designs for architectural projects, such as the Kameha Grand hotel in Bonn, the Mondrian South Beach hotel in Miami and the Villa Moda store in Bahrain.
