Bertjan Pot was born in the Netherlands in 1975. He focuses in the material and production processes. He likes to use computer aesthetics and industrial production methods, but without actually using a computer or sometimes even the industrial production method as a design tool.
Almost all of his designs come from experiments in materials. He believes, "that the way a product feels is just as important as the way it looks".
One of his famous products is the Random Light.
He won numerous prices, such as the
Materiaalfondsprijs 2003, with the random chair.
