RONAN & ERWAN BOUROULLEC

“The fundamental role of design  is to give shape to culture.”

Ronan Bouroullec (born in 1971) and Erwan Bouroullec (born in 1976) have been working together for more than twenty years now.

Their collaboration is a permanent dialogue, nourished by their distinct personalities and a shared notion of diligence, with the intention to achieve greater balance and refinement.

In 1997, they presented their Disintegrated Kitchen at the Salon du Meuble in Paris, where it was spotted by Giulio Cappellini, who gave them their first industrial design commissions.

 The Bouroullecs have been working with Magis since 2004, designing three complete furniture collections – Striped, Steelwood and Officina – as well as additional projects such as Pila chair, Pilo table, Central and Tambour tables.

These days, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec design for numerous manufacturers, including Magis, Vitra, Kvadrat, Kartell, Established and Sons, Ligne Roset, Axor, Alessi, Issey Miyake, Cappellini, Mattiazzi, Flos, Mutina, Hay and more recently Glas Italia and Iittala.

They also continue to carry out their own experimental activity which is essential to the development of their work at Galerie kreo, Paris, where four exhibitions of their designs were held between 2001 and 2012. They also embark on occasional architectural projects

Voted Designers of the Year at the Salon du Meuble in 2002, their other awards include the Compasso d’Oro won in 2011 for the Steelwood chair they designed for Magis. Several exhibitions have been devoted to their work

In 2012, Phaidon Press published Works, a comprehensive monographic book about Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec. Previously, two other monographs had been published about the Bouroullec brothers’ design work: Ronan et Erwan Bouroullec – Catalogue de Raison (Paris: Images Modernes / kreo, 2002) and Ronan et Erwan Bouroullec (Paris: Phaidon Press, 2003).

PRODUCT CARE

WOOD

When needed, use ph-balanced liquid soap especially formulated for wood, diluted in water. Do not use abrasive sponges, as they may leave scratches. Avoid using acidic products, solvents and products containing ammonia. Avoid exposure to sunlight as this may permanently discolour the surface.

LEATHER

Regularly clean using a dry and soft rag. When needed, use products especially formulated for leather. Immediately dry after the treatment. Do not use abrasive sponges as they may leave scratches. Where there was a stain of ink or similar, use only the specific stick that is commonly available on the market. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight or heat sources.

FABRIC

Daily care and immediate stain removal will ensure that your wool upholstery will keep looking good for many years to come. It is normally sufficient to regularly vacuum and air upholstered product. Never use undiluted cleaning agents, bleaching agents, ammonia or soap intended for hard surfaces. As a general rule, many types of stain can be removed using warm water. For greasy stains, use a dry stain remover. For more insoluble stains (chewing gum, candle wax, etc.), use a plastic bag filled with ice to rub the stain until the substance has become friable. Use a clean flat blunt blade to delicately remove the substance. Be careful when using solvents, because these could dissolve the upholstery material beneath.
