Expressing the natural themes found throughout Vitra’s accessory collection, the Vitra L’Oiseau Ceramic uses its minimalist curves and glazed ceramic finish to evoke images of Nordic folk art.
Designed by
Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec
Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, the Breton-born brothers, are the stars of European design and the most promising industrial designers to have emerged from France since Philippe Starck in the 1980s.
A combination of romanticism and functionality runs throughout both brothers’ work. Like all truly talented designers, the Bouroullecs have defined a distinctive visual style, which Jasper Morrison (one of the designers they most admire) described as “thoughtful and disciplined, with a real spirit and poetry”.
