Habitat Award

 

Winner: Robin Grasby, Northumbria University 3D Design BA Hons
Project Details: A multi-material desk and 2 seater beech chair

 

 

The judges selected Robin Grasby for his ‘natural affinity to the materials’ and described him as ‘a good all-rounder that embraces craftsmanship with a great use of mixed materials.’ Robin worked as a joiner when he was 16 and it was this that inspired him to continue to University. He also hopes to take a Masters Degree in Furniture Design and was particularly flattered to receive the award, ‘knowing that people view my work as being successful and suitable for manufacturing.’

Robin Grasby has also won the New Designers 100% Design Award – see below.
