Benjamin Hubert: Materials in a New Light
British designer Benjamin Hubert founded LAYER as a multidisciplinary creative agency bringing together industrial design, engineering and research. His design process begins with understanding people, behaviours and the context in which a product will be used, providing a practical foundation for its development.
Material exploration also plays an important role in Hubert's work. His lighting for Muuto demonstrates this through the use of sprayed cocoon material, where microscopic strands form the shade and diffuse the light. The technique gives the material both a structural and functional role while creating the distinctive appearance of the lighting.
