Bouroullec | Eptome French Artist
Ronan Bouroullec serif TV 2019
One of my favorite artist and designer is Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec brother. They are famous for designing the Samsung Serif TV in 2015. It was a complete shock to the world as its design was much more contemporary interior furniture than a hi-tec consumer elctronic. I believe the serif TV pioneered this new direction in consumer electronic design trends. It’s usage of soft and textured fabric back panel has given the simple flat rectangular panel an emotional connection to something you want to keep close to your cozy soft and gently draped curtains. It’s side panel design that is inspired by one of the most traditional type font style; serif also conveys a warm & gentle connection to a contemporary furniture.
Bouroullec brother’’ design is always so emotional and different than other designer’s work. It’s somewhere in-between art and design. It’s has the functional benefits but, more importantly it is a masterpiece art. It has the charming attraction that makes collectors wanting to keep at their most intimate place. It’s timeless and trendy at the same time. Perhaps, Bouroullec is the eptome French Contemporary artist.
