Great Brits - New Alchemists

Curated with the Design Museum and Sir Paul Smith, Great Brits is a showcase for the new generation of talented young designers working in Britain. It will be launched at Paul Smith’s headquarters during the 2005 Milan Furniture Fair.

Each of the designers in Great Brits – Pascal Anson, Michael Cross and Julie Mathias, Julia Lohmann, Matthias Megyeri and Peter Traag – is at the start of their career, yet has developed a distinctive approach to design.

This is the second Great Brits exhibition of the work of young British designers to be organised by the Design Museum and British Council with Paul Smith Ltd. during the Milan Furniture Fair. The first exhibition in 2003 helped to launch the international careers of Tord Boontje, Sam Buxton, Matthias Bengtsson and Daniel Brown and identified the emergence of a new romanticism in design.
