Design Means... Tim Parsons October 12, 2009

Tim Parsons is a product designer and a writer and lecturer on design matters. His work exploits the way that design, criticism and education have a mutually beneficial effect. Drawing influence from both craft and industrial design, his design projects have examined notions of familiarity, functionality and the qualities of materials and processes. He has worked with manufacturers in Britain and Europe and exhibited widely, including at The Design Museum, London. He has contributed articles and essays to publications including Blueprint and Phaidon’s Design Classics and has just completed Thinking:Objects, a book on contemporary product design published by AVA Books.
