Lex Pott

Lex Pott is a Dutch designer born in Hilversum in 1985, working from the Rotterdam studio he founded in 2009 after graduating cum laude from the Man and Living department of the Design Academy Eindhoven.

His method is raw and intuitive. Pott returns to the origin of the materials he uses most, wood, stone and metal, and reduces a design to its essence instead of hiding it under applied layers; the same logic runs through a candle, a vase, a pair of scissors, a mirror or a daybed. The portfolio mixes self-initiated work with commissions for manufacturers and brands, and he has taught as a guest at the Sandberg Instituut in Amsterdam.
