Fifty years from now: Max Lipsey

Max Lipsey is an American designer. He received a bachelor's degree from New York University. In 2007 he graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven in the Netherlands, where he is now based.

Since 2008 he has had a studio where he develops and produces his own designs. He says, "My personal work reflects my fascination with nature, material, crafts, history and making these fascinations into an object."

According to Lipsey's website, his biggest design goal is to challenge what we make industrially to be more spontaneous and vital...to incorporate more of the human qualities he finds in certain craft worlds.

Lipsey was included in Dwell's list of "new guard" designers, and for good reason. I believe his work will still be appreciated fifty years from now.
