Geschichten von Örsjö Belysning

Wir leben in eher düsteren Zeiten. Nichtsdestotrotz war die diesjährige Euroluce – die alle zwei Jahre stattfindende Beleuchtungsausstellung am Salone del Mobile in Mailand – von viel Zuversicht geprägt. Die Ausstellung leuchtete heller als eine herkömmliche 100-Watt-Glühbirne.

'Awards come and go,' says Benjamin Hubert. 'They're not a mark of good design, that's for sure.' You'd be forgiven for thinking that there's more than a touch of false modesty or disingenuity at work here, given the celebratory press coverage the young British designer received a couple of years ago, not to mention the numerous plaudits. But not so. In a recent interview with Architonic, Hubert reveals himself to be as pragmatic and self-aware as he is creative.
