Chris Kabel
Netherlands
Chris Kabel (Haarlem, 1975) combines a sensitive and analytical approach with a fascination for material and natural phenomena to design objects, furniture and architectural elements. Sensitivity to context and finding relevant design answers prevails trends: “I like to be smart more than stylish”. One way or another, aesthetics always follow suit in an intuitive and poetic way. Chris Kabel graduated in 2001 from the Design Academy Eindhoven. He lives and works in Rotterdam and Brussels.
