Tom Dixon: Lighting the Way The Inspirati

While Tom Dixon is a household name in British design, and even a living, breathing symbol of the country’s aesthetic today, there is no denying that he has forever been a true original.
Born in Tunisia, and raised in Morocco and Egypt before moving to England, Dixon’s exotic early influences ignited a quest for a new way of seeing and, in due course, of making. This drive has taken him around the world in search of inspiration, channeling creative awakenings into luxurious light fixtures and free spirited furniture.
 
Tom filled us in on the highs and lows of the convergence of Covid and Brexit, which led not only to supply chain disruptions, but also to an intense period of creation in a green house owned by the oldest orchid business in the world, which revived the kind of play intrinsic to his early career. We discussed the beauty to be found in the first of something, being motivated by surprises, and why you should go to as many parties as possible.
