Objekts Welcomes Nigella, Bodo & Alan



Objekts would like to welcome three new designers to our store.

Nigella Lawson

Nigella Lawson is the author of many bestselling cookery books, which, together with several successful TV series, have made hers a household name around the world.
Inspired by her time spent in the kitchen and wanting to improve or make more desirable some of the tools of her trade, she developed her various ranges. The Living Kitchen range was co-designed by Nigella and Sebastian Conran.

Paying close attention to materials, colour and form, the Living Kitchen collection has evolved to include objects which are of high production and design standard and cover a wide range of kitchen needs.

The original Classic range featured ceramics in Nigella's now signature colours, "white with soul" cream and "good mood" duck egg blue.
The Liquorice collection recreates her signature pieces in sophisticated urban black. Many pieces are available in either ceramic or durable melamine.

Alan Aldridge

Alan Aldridge worked with the nation's key movers and shakers on the illustrative work for The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Elton John and the award-winning children's book "The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper's Feast" and designed iconic brands such as Hard Rock Cafe and House of Blues Identities.

Aldridge's colourful and psychedelic work defined an era.

Bodo Sperlein

The Bodo Sperlein Bathroom Collection is a unique range of contemporary home accessories in fine, white porcelain and ceramic.

The Bathroom Collection has a clean-cut, sculptural aesthetic that reflects Bodo Sperlein's signature style, offering affordable luxury from one of Britain's leading designers.

These new ranges can now be found in the Objekts Store

More designers coming soon!
