Just to inject some fun and controversy...Marc Newson is an up-himself-wanker.

Let's name all the other designers out there and their character/physical flaws. For instance, Ray Eames looked like a bloke in drag.

If Beaker and Bunsen Honeydew had a love child, it would be Stig Lindberg....

I didn't mean for
Stig's picture to be so big.
Was that mean?

Hardly !
Indeed, it might be a plus on "that other thread" !
One definition of "mean" is stingy. You, on the other hand, have been generous.
Now, who has a picture of Marc Newson ?

Ok, so Ray wasn't exactly good-looking... Still, I have always thought she looked really cool in her own weird way.

Jasper Morrison
Jasper morrison is one of my favorite designers, he is "The Man" when it comes to lamps and cork. With all that knowledge and skill, you think he would notice that he has one long eyebrow. Pluck pluck pluckity pluck pluck.

Lockheed lounge that went so high it could fly!
It finaly passed one million euros (748 500 GBP) by CHRISTIES LONDON ,october 14th 2007,
for that lockheed lounge chair. I now understand why they have chosen NEWSON as the designer for the EADS ASTRIUM space rocket program, he's one of the first designer who ignore gravity.
