Maarten Baas Funny Chankley Bore
Being an acclaimed craftsman is sometimes tricky for the clients. Dutch designer Maarten Baas evolves faster than our times.
His first steps into the business were through his Smoke series. Everyone was impressed and he suddenly felt the warm embrace of top designer universe. After the innovative Smoke came Sculpt. A series created to defy your inner geometry. Now he’s playing house with a new series of whimsical products.
His new creations are called “The Chankley Bore†as the result of Maarten Baas’ Limited Edition work with Established & Sons. They’ve first seen the light of day in Milan, earlier this year but now, The Chankley Bore is making the official London entrée in the Established & Sons LIMITED gallery during Frieze Art Fair, this October. Whether it addressed the kids or an alien generation, these new creations from the Dutch designer Maarten Baas are brilliantly new and they make you stop and take a good look at, even if you like them or not. It’s just design. And he’s having fun, so should we!
