The inspiring modern design of Piet Boon takes my
breath away since the Amsterdam-based firm’s
designs are always packed with understated
sophistication, elegance, and integrity.
Their jam?
Bespoke total design concepts.
Piet Boon contemporary furnishings
are crafted from only the best and most exquisite
materials put into the hands of quality craftspeople.
I love honoring this creative firm
to leverage the role of the artist and designer
in our fast-moving, technologically evolving
society and culture which so often neglects
the artist, the imagination of the designer,
and the value of creative genius.
If you are an artist or maker, then you get it.
If you love beautiful design, you get it too.
And if art has ever healed you, I bet you agree.
Our hearts, minds, and bodies are nurtured
by fine art.
From Amsterdam to New York to Saudi Arabia,
Piet Boon turns houses into personal havens and
designs seamless public spaces to work hard.

Once again you have captured me ! I am not one for "modern design" but these ideas are just stunning. Thank you for pointing out the mix of colors and textures -I'm going back over these photos and really study them – some are so "simply" beautiful -less is more is a phrase that comes to mind when viewing them.

i always have to look closer at the image to truly appreciate the brilliance of what they do…to use so much restraint and attend to even tiny details so that the final result is completely a signature, bespoke, custom design is mindblowing. 🙂
Love the aesthetics of this designer, Michele. So sophisticated and clean, I never tire of it!
me either! the sophistication factor is off the charts!
