Interiors

Andrew Byrom

Interiors was originally conceived as a digital font (1997) and was inspired by an old wooden chair in the corner of Byrom’s London office that, when looked at from a certain angle, resembled the letter h. In 2003 they were constructed in three-dimensions - using tubular steel - into full-scale furniture frames. These dimensional letterforms have been exhibited in venues across the United States and feautured in numerous design publications.
