Johnny Egg describes his style as ‘Theatrical Minimalism’. He believes that furniture should be functional, well designed and practical and that nothing should be overlooked or neglected. Hence his signature flocked drawer linings.
He learned his skills working as an apprentice for a traditional cabinetmaker but now creates his own designs in his workshop in rural Essex. I met him at 100% Design last year and he is as lovely as his furniture.
His Black & Twisted unit was nominated by RIBA as one of the ‘Best Products of 2006’
Every piece that comes out of his Essex Studio is dated, numbered and signed.
I love that he uses pink. So decadent.
This striking limited edition bar will be made in 10 exciting colours, but only ONE of each. Each piece will have its own distinct bar code.
Even chandeliers and mirrors cannot escape the flocking. How striking would this pair be in an entrance hall?
But my favourite of all, this swarkovski crystal handbag hook!
