Maarten Baas

In a recent editorial meeting, we discovered that we were falling into the self-imposed editorial trap that we were only annointing older, iconic designers with the mantle of Designers We Love for this Design2Share column. So we purposely decided to break our old habits in the New Year and recognize the talent of Dutch furniture designer Maarten Baas.

His work is groundbreaking and rule-breaking, and Moooi is starting to carry his Smoke collection. You'll see why we love this designer in the following video interview.
