‘apply the design - unlock the art’
The Mark Humphrey philosophy code is a total approach formula, created to unlock more from art and design. Meticulously applied, it reveals the hidden magic from combining artistic vision, unique innovation and immaculate standards. Seamlessly delivering objects and space of timeless beauty, each and every time.
Quoted as ‘the artist of design’, by the Financial Times, Mark’s work is about aesthetics, practicality and quality: beautiful masterpieces, in glamorous spaces, crafted to the highest standards that perform functions for everyday uses. They are functional art sculptural designs, enhancing physical and psychological well being.
The theme’s formula is FUNCTIONAL SCULPTURE = (emotion + use)³ where partnering usability combine in one interacting masterpiece or installation: seductive relationships between the useable elements and the marriage of emotional and physical reactions. Living in, around and with the art design, he explores the idea of getting more from them: using space and light, configuring form and volume, combining materials and colours.
Note:
1. Space = (environment + ambience)³ creating clever uses of space: glamorous, opulent, intelligent, elegant etc.
2. Light = (reflection + refraction)³ where light reflects and refracts creating colours, shadows, tones etc.
3. Form = (aesthetic + function)³ where elements fuse together, using quality details, in one object or space, creating beautiful and practical solutions.
4. Volume = (shape + size)³ where objects and space change shape, size and configuration eg spin, swivel, flip, fold etc.
5. Material = (natural + synthetic)³ where materials combine such as crystal, onyx, bronze, leather, cashmere, carbon fibre, composites etc.
6. Colour = (finish + texture)³ where the colour is influenced by various finishes such as lacquer, glaze, gesso and the textures such as honed, polished, rivan etc.
