Paul Cocksedge: Reflections is the first monograph on the London-based British designer, known for two decades of experimental, multidisciplinary work marked by simplicity, joy and wonder. Drawing on an interest in science and in how people interact with design, Cocksedge creates pieces that challenge perceptions of everyday objects. Career-spanning and personal, the book covers his lighting, product design, architectural projects, installations and sculpture, including work for Flos, Moooi, Swarovski, Hermès, Friedman Benda and Carpenter’s Workshop. Designed to feel like his own sketchbook, it contains hundreds of previously unpublished images from his archive, including sketches, drawings, Polaroids and ephemera, with interviews and essays by figures such as Marc Benda and Ron Arad on tipped-in tracing paper.
