Tejo Remy
Furniture, interior and public space designer Tejo Remy is known for his imaginative modern and post-modern pieces that combine ornamentation, function and constructive forms into a cohesive whole.
Born in 1960 in Nijmegen in the Netherlands, Remy studied three-dimensional design at the Utrecht School of the Arts (also known as the HKU University of the Arts), graduating in 1991.
Since then, Remy has actively collaborated with the conceptual Dutch design firm Droog. With the company, he has achieved international acclaim for such pieces as his Milkbottle lamps, Rag chairs and lounge chairs, which are produced with multiple layers of fabric. The You Can’t Lay Down Your Memories chest of drawers is a sculptural assemblage composed of drawers of varying shapes, sizes and colors stacked haphazardly.
Remy is further noted for his work with Dutch interior and furniture designer René Veenhuizen, also a graduate of the Utrecht School of the Arts. Together, they have devised multiple experimental furniture pieces, such as their Weaving cabinet, featuring oak drawers and steel packing straps, and their curious and whimsical Tennis Ball bench, which is made with a spiraling steel frame and hundreds of tennis balls.
Throughout his design career, Remy has exhibited his work extensively, including in shows at the Museum of Arts and Design, Museum of Modern Art and the Bartow-Pell Mansion Museum in New York, the ACME Gallery in Los Angeles, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam and Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam.
In 2022, Remy, with Droog, collaborated with Balenciaga, displaying custom Rag benches in the fashion house’s stores in London, Berlin, Milan, Beijing, Shanghai, Tokyo, Singapore, New York and Beverly Hills.
