How do we design for timelessness? And how do we strike a balance between human-centric design features and technical innovation? It's a topic that V-Zug discusses in this special episode of ‘Monocle on Design', featuring a creative panel of Andrea Caputo, Philippe Malouin and Sabine Marcelis.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Philippe designs everything from furniture to lighting, combining modern geometry with a sense of humour and materials that are built to last. I first met him many years ago, when he was doing some work with my wife, Faye Toogood. We'd turned our bedroom into a makeshift design studio, and Philippe and a few others would come round to make maquettes and geek out about ergonomics. Nowadays, he's a burly, bearded bear of a man with an extra 20kg of muscle, but his wit and warmth are the same as I remember. He tells me about what it was like to grow up beside a lake in Canada. From the age of seven, he would take himself off in his boat for the whole day, catching fish and swimming off the islands. This independent, practical spirit has continued into adult life. He largely works on his own, because that's how he likes it. His studio in Hackney, where we met to record this conversation, is the epicentre of his creative output – a place where he can build something, obsess over which type of screw he's going to use, or just sit and daydream. He tells me what it's like to create a home from stuff that others have thrown away, how he saved up to buy his favourite sofa and kept it wrapped in plastic for two years, and why space is the ultimate luxury.This episode was recorded in person, at Philippe Malouin's studio in East London.For more: Visit The Modern House website to see images of the spaces discussed in this episodeCheck out Philippe Malouin's latest workProduction: Hannah PhillipsEditing: Oscar CrawfordGraphic Design: Tom YoungMusic: Father Hosted on Acast.

This month, hosts Oli Stratford and India Block recap a trio of reports that examine Urban Heat Islands, reducing the carbon emissions of touring exhibitions, and building safer cities for birds. In products and projects they discuss the Bilboquet lamp by Philippe Malouin for Flos, football kits inspired by William Morris and conclude with an interview with Olivier Lacrouts, one half of Studio d-o-t-s, discussing their School of Phyto-Centred Design.

Följ med bakom kulisserna i denna liveinspelning från möbelmässan i Stockholm. Det blir högt och lågt, skratt och allvar när Kattis och Elin gräver ner sig i inredningstrender, formgivarskvaller och privata insikter. Vad har Elins psykolog och formgivaren Philippe Malouin med varandra att göra? Varför går Kattis igång på skräp? Hur gjorde Elin för att vinna designern Jonas Bolins förtroende? Varför lämnar (gissningsvis) arkitekterna rummet mitt under inspelning (och vad har det med inredaren Ilse Crawford att göra)? Och hur gick det med lanseringen av Kattis möbler under namnet Matsson Marnell?Klippt av Jonas Sveningson/Brandline. (Eller snarare oklippt, eftersom Hemtrevligtduon ville ha det så just denna gång.)

Can technology lead to more humane hospitality? We visit Toronto’s The Annex Hotel to find out why they think it can. Plus: The Woolmark Company’s latest collaboration with Prada, and designer Philippe Malouin on the future of office furniture.

Philippe Malouin is an industrial designer based in London. “I graduated in 2008 at the height of the financial crisis, and I think it humbled a lot of people […] Nowadays you need to be nice and work hard in order to get ahead, I don’t think being a rockstar and having an ego will get you anywhere.”

Philippe Malouin just graduated from the "living" department of the Design academy Eindhoven with his Grace table, the ballpoint stool and the dervish lamp. All designs are inspired by simple every day objects like balloons or pens.
