The Digital Virtuosity

Bastiaan de Nennie proposes a new set of principles for the design process, which is fast digitalising. His method takes physical objects, often with a distinctively nostalgic feel, deconstructs them in the computer and puts the different parts from different objects back together. With suggestions for surfaces and colours, his ‘sketches’ generate ideas for completely new objects. In a world where craftsmanship is becoming synonymous with digital fluency, developing a signature style is essential to distinguish one designer from the next. The Digital Virtuosity, with its man-made choices and computer-generated distortions, leads the way.
