Irene Van Ophoven Brings Bauhaus To Eindhoven During Dutch Design Week
Studio Irene van Ophoven presents a new collection of textile statements for dynamic interiors at MONDiLAB during Dutch Design Week from 22 - 30 October with her own interpretation of the Bauhaus story: between applied art and design.
In this new series created exclusively for and in collaboration with MONDiLAB, Irene van Ophoven found the right combination of tactile crafts, art and digital techniques.
With this series, Studio Irene van Ophoven gives an interpretation of the Bauhaus story; between applied art and design.
The Designer
Irene van Ophoven (born 1975) is a Dutch designer, stylist and founder of Studio Irene van Ophoven, based in Rotterdam. Irene is fascinated by textiles, their tactile aspect and how patterns can turn a space into a meaningful place.
As Studio Irene van Ophoven, she helps clients stand out with a powerful and distinctive look through, among other things, creative direction, collection development and giving signature to spaces with designs for floors and walls.
The Studio
The studio develops interior design concepts and products, and creates large-scale designs for textiles, ‘feature walls’ and more.
The life-size designs and patterns are characterised by their bold geometric style and their refined use of colours. Irene’s unique designs for interior applications such as wall-art panels, tapestries, wallpaper, rugs and cushions can give tactility and personal character to an interior and bring just that bit of excitement and uplifting touch which is so important in this time.
Her ideas for surfaces and pattern designs often originate from experiment and research, with an increasing role for sustainability.
The design statements created by Studio Irene van Ophoven can perfectly be seen in grand interiors of hotels, open lofts and office environments.
