In our latest podcast, Breed Director Olivia Triggs talks to architect John Pawson. John has worked on everything, from private homes and monasteries to bridges and yacht interiors. And whether he's working on buildings, interiors, or furniture, John's designs are always simple, functional, and beautiful.
His aesthetic partly derives from time he spent in Japan as a young man, which he outlines in his book, 'Anatomy of Minimum'. John is also an accomplished photographer whose book of chromatically ordered images, 'Spectrum', was turned into an immersive exhibition at 180 The Strand. In 2019, his continued influence and dedication to his craft was recognized when he was awarded a CBE in the New Year Honours.
