A “Do-it-yourself” design concept is deceptive. For outsiders, a DIY project may seem so simple to create yet in reality, a lot of aesthetic consideration is involved behind every design. In producing interesting DIY things, skills and the insight to work with any available material are important. In this regard, French designer Pierre Lota is a DIY genius. He can create awesome design pieces from improvised materials and make it appear so simple as shown in this video of eight design projects done in less than a minute each.
A product of prestigious art and design schools – École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs, Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Appliqués et des Métiers d’Art and École Boulle – Pierre Lota is trained in the practice of creating new design concepts. One of his more prominent design projects includes light fixtures for Kaer & Splann, which make use of glass acrylic blades to “reflect the luminance of the LED and the materialization of light.”
