Talent for streamlined, timeless designs

John Bollen is a graduate of the Royal College of Art in London. He developed the Simpla table, which can be seen in the Tate Modern (UK), Greater London Assembly (UK), Tenerife School of Scenic Arts (Spain) and Charlottehaven (Denmark).

Over his extensive career, Bollen has gained a profound understanding of engineering, construction and production. His mechanical mindset, obsession with perfection and fascination with minimalistic, multi-functional furniture permeates his professional life. Bollen’s relentless drive and talent for streamlined, timeless designs with space-saving solutions has earned him a reputation for being one of the most innovative furniture designers of the 21st century.

When he’s not busy creating the next award-winning design, his other keen interest is soul music, mainly rhythm & blues. In fact, Bollen is the proud owner of probably one of the largest collection of blues music in the United Kingdom.
