PLATFORM is an annual display and publication series dedicated to showcasing contemporary design practice by the Design Museum. The first volume in a series will present the fascinating work of Bethan Laura Wood. The world of designer Bethan Laura Wood is a sumptuous explosion of colour, pattern and texture. Her vibrant and varied work nods to different cultures and time periods, celebrating individuality and maximalism. Wood is passionate about collaboration and learning from artisans and specialist craftspeople, and her pieces prove that design can be decorative and fun yet functional. Wood's interest of artistic movements, materials and other designers work steep her creations in meaning. Themes recur in her projects, blurring the boundaries between one collection and another. Whether subverting ideas about femininity and ornamentation, questioning our perception of reality in an increasingly digital world, or seeking to understand the connections we make with everyday objects, Woods work invites us to look beyond the surface.
