MATIJS KORPERSHOEK - DECORATIVE GLASSES Motto: 'In my humble opinion, design is of no importance'. Which is not to say that the solid gold 'Decorative Glasses' won't sparkle in the sunshine. The piece can be worn in several ways - in your hair (on your head), in your shirt or on a string. Glasses as jewellery and status symbol - as internationally recognizable as the i-pin. Matijs Korpershoek was born in Leeuwarden in 1969 and works in Eindhoven. He studied at the 'Men and Living' Department of Eindhoven's Design Academy. His two final-year projects (1996) - a 'Magnetic Case' and promotional articles - received the Dutch Furniture Award and the Talent Trophy at the Annual Advertising Awards (Netherlands Art Directors' Club). His 'Magnetic Case' has entered the permanent collection of the Centraal Museum Utrecht and Korpershoek was nominated for the Rotterdam Design Prize in 1998. He has been designing for Droog Design since 1996. In 2001, he designed a lapel pin for the 'Woonbeurs' (Ideal Home Exhibition) in Amsterdam. He set up Small Inventions in 2002 as a vehicle for all his products, art (jewellery), commercial home products and promotional gifts. |
