Special Guest from the Netherlands: Bertjan Pot The IDSwest team is thrilled to announce that renowned designer Bertjan Pot will be speaking at IDSwest 2014 on the Livingspace Design Stage. Bertjan is well known for his Random Light design which started as a material experiment.

Born in 1975, in Nieuwleusen, The Netherlands, Bertjan designs mostly interior products and is fascinated by techniques, textures, structures, patterns and colours. Material research is the start of almost every product.

His technical interest and creative fantasies are pushing the boundaries of industrial production. Alongside their own projects, Studio Bertjan Pot is also working with many other companies and institutions including Moooi, Arco, Goods, Montis, Feld, Gelderland and Established & Sons.

Come down to IDSwest to hear Bertjan speak about his design process and inspiration and to see some of his work.

Key Design Players: A Day in the Life

FALKEN REYNOLDS INTERIORS DESIGNING SPACES “Mornings are typically spent at the studio on unglamorous administration tasks, but we focus on creative work in the afternoons—sketching, searching for materials, working through a technical detail or heading to a showroom in the neighbourhood. Nearly every day we have a client meeting in the studio and a trip to a job site to check on construction progress. Our career and our neighbourhood are so completely intertwined—we wouldn’t have it any other way.”

ANGELA ROBINSON INTERIOR DESIGN MERGING ART AND DESIGN “Our day begins with a morning inspiration session and we spend the remainder working toward deadlines—in designer showrooms, sourcing fabrics, wallpaper and furnishings. From there, we’ll meet with some of our favourite local furniture suppliers. Communication and organization take up the majority of our time—not as glamorous, but necessary. When we’re lucky, we end our days by attending a design industry function or catching up with fellow designers and artists over wine.” − Angela Robinson

POPPYTALK LIFESTYLE BLOG SHARING NEW IDEAS “Our daily posts are usually already scheduled the night before to publish early in the morning, so after checking our emails we will start to post on our social networks. We are always thinking about our readers in the east, so these posts usually go out prior to 8:00 am PT. One of us will then head out to the shop, while the other will work on upcoming stories, technical issues, or any other details.”

EMA PETER PHOTOGRAPHY CAPTURING THE MOMENT “All I can say is it’s one big adventure in the world of interiors and architecture. My team and I often work 12-hour days—we chase dawn at 4:00 am and dusk at 10:00 pm. We could be in LA one day shooting celebrity residences in Beverly Hills and then on the tarmac in Fort McMurray shooting the airport the next. I see all the cool projects before the industry does and honestly get excited as a kid to tackle them.” − Ema Peter

VANCOUVER SPECIAL SOURCING PRODUCTS “I often end up spending the day answering a lot of emails, assembling furniture or unpacking boxes of new products—it’s Christmas every day.

There are a lot of small details that constantly need attention. I love that no day is ever the same, that I am surrounded by beautiful objects and that I get to chat with so many interesting people who drop by the shop.” − Anne Pearson

From there Bertjan takes on challenges with manufacturers to explore possibilities and push boundaries. The reward for each challenge is a new one.
