Auditorium 100% Design London
Artist impression by Selencky///Parsons
Artist impression by Selencky///Parsons for this years auditorium at 100% Design London. Off the shelf components are used to create a reusable, veiled enclosure that acts as a large-scale infographic, highlighting domestic plastic usage. The EPIC lounge chairs are part of their proposal to host the speakers.
DEAN chair
Research - prototype
Chairs fascinate me and in particular the construction of the legs. Strength and construction compete with elegance and manufacturability. This model DEAN I developed some time ago. It is lightweight and the legs seem to come straight out of the seat, which I like very much. Send me a message when interested.
Life through my lens

Light is one of the most important elements in an interior. This image proves it for me.

NOX exhibition – An ode to the color black
Gallery OODE Amsterdam
At night all things look the same. With the absence of light, the color disappears. What is left is shape, texture and reflection of light. NOX is a multidisciplinary exhibition, curated by Niek Schoenmakers and Marleen Kurvers.

Biennale Interieur
EPIC - The Floor Is Yours
During the 25th edition of the Biennale Interieur I show the EPIC family in Kortrijk.
The family of three is selected to be part of 'The Floor Is Yours', a gathering of young talent and designer-driven labels that exemplify a new way of doing business.
For three years I worked together with the Belgium based company ZET furniture to develop the EPIC. So there is no better place than Kortrijk to introduce the EPIC.
You will find us in Hall 3 stand F3-09 - October 14-23. I hope to see you there. - www.interieur.be for more details.
Design District
EPIC introduction
After the introduction in Milan, the EPIC family will be on show during Design District - Zaandam. EPIC is the result of an intensive cooperation between Marc and the Belgium furniture brand Z-editions. Marc is the first Dutch designer to join the team, for that reason Design District is the perfect event to present the models to the Dutch market.
Distinctive back
The EPIC’s back splits the frame in two and gives the model its distinctive look. The round and lascivious shape of the back and seat make it a modern, allround chair for everyday use. The collection comes in oak and can be partly upholstered (seat) or painted in color, offering a world of possibilities at home or in public spaces.
You will find Z-editions at Stand S22 | S23 - Visit www.designdistrict.nl for all the details

All EPIC models are available in the 3D Warehouse (Sketchup)
