Notes from the Archive: Marcel Wanders is best known for his iconic Knotted Chair designed in 1995. To date, he has designed more than 1700 products including work for Flos, B&B Italia, Alessi, Boffi, Cappellini, Kartel, Moroso and Droog. He co-founded and is the art director of Moooi. In his biography, Wander's chief concern is bringing the human touch back to design, ushering in what he call design's "new age", in which designer, craftsperson and user are reunited.
