ALEXANDER PETUNIN From a futurists perspective The products designed by Alexander Petunin are unique for their futuristic shapes and bright colours. His furniture, lighting and mind-bending home accessories have been displayed in London at the 100% Design exhibition and during Moscows Design Week. In 2014 his Onetwotree collection of lights was selected as the winner of the Creativity Award at Isaloni in Milan. Lights play an important role in the designers work: presenting a fusion of light and colour, his Liquid Cloud model garnered a great deal of attention. Another collection – Balaballs – is made up of an impressive array of multicoloured spherical modules, which can be employed separately or as part of complex compositions. Petunins Alien Sofa is equally striking with its unusual form and fluorescent pink inserts on a white background. The products sleek silhouette is truly reminiscent of a visitor from another planet. Beside it a modern bookcase with rounded corners and vibrantly coloured shelves blends into the interior. “I like to use 21st century technologies such as CAD, parametric design and digital modelling in the creative process,” explained the designer. “However, the majority of my concepts are based on technologies of the future, and my work on the whole falls within ‘futurism’.” mosbuild/MosbuildMagazine/14/eng/index.html#/70/
