Ilse Crawford: The Art of Design
Ilse Crawford is a British designer, academic and creative director with a simple mission to put human needs and desires at the center of all that she does.
Although often described as an interior designer, Crawford’s portfolio contains projects ranging from a secluded garden for a Hong Kong restaurant to the conversion of a 100-year-old house in Stockholm into a boutique hotel.
Ilse Crawford started her career as a journalist and at only 27 she became the editor of Elle Decoration UK. After over a decade in magazines, with a mission to put human needs and desires back at the center of the design, she founded her multi-disciplinary practice Studioilse in 2001, which is her main business.
“Working for a magazine gave me a real on-the-ground education, an insight into what is actually successful. I saw so much new that I began to prioritize what would last and connect. I am still interested in the new, but I am also concerned about the relevant.”
“As the head of Studioilse, I mostly design interiors. But, in fact, we do a lot more than that here” Crawford said for Dezeen Magazine.
“Because, I think, interiors are ultimately where we live, they are a lot more than pieces of furniture. They’re really about the interior life, how we live as human beings.” In other words, it means designing furniture and products that support and enhance human behavior and actions in everyday life.
Crawford is the founder of the department of Man and Well-Being at the prestigious Design Academy Eindhoven. Her mission extends to nurturing a new generation of students to always question why and how their work improves the reality of life.
She designed the Soho House club in New York, Babington House, the Electric Cinema, and the Hong Kong restaurant Duddell’s, as well as pieces for Georg Jensen.
Duddells’s by Ilse Crawford
It’s not a traditional restaurant & bar. Nor an art gallery. And it’s much more than an exclusive members’ club. Indeed, it’s a place where you pay a lot of money to be a part of, if you’re lucky to get in, since there is a massive waiting list. Despite Duddell’s undeniable opulence and grandeur, Crawford took her signature humanistic approach to design, where people are placed at the centre of the project.
Ilse Crawford received some awards throughout her career. Below, we highlight the most recent ones:
- Queen Elizabeth II awarded her an MBE for her services to interior design, in 2014.
- In 2015, she received a Doctorate honoris causa from the London College of Communication, University of the Arts London
- Ilse Crawford was named Designer of the Year on September 2017.
Crawford was profiled in the first season of the Netflix docu-series – Abstract: The Art of Design. This is an original documentary series highlighting artists in the field of design. It was released on Netflix on February 10, 2017
As an illustration, scroll below to discover some works from StudioIlse by Ilse Crawford.

Throughout the lounge every detail has been considered to ensure the passenger experience is friction-free and enables them to slow down and feel good, before getting on their flight.

Bar Chair: Tips For You To Make The Best Choice
Choosing a bar chair is a more than fundamental step in the design of a charming project for your business. This is because the bar chair and all furniture make up the image of your establishment and thus can also serve to attract more customers.
Generally, most customers want to have experiences that motivate them to return to the establishment. When people enter an environment, they want to feel welcomed and with the certainty that they have chosen the best alternative.
This feeling, of course, is also linked to several other aspects, such as good service, competitive prices, and so on.
Bar Chairs contributes on the composing of a considerable portion of the visual communication that you do with the clientele. It is also these pieces that give the consumer comfort to feel good and stay in place.
Certainly, beauty must be taken into account, but you cannot forget the setting and the general organization of the place. Considering factors such as comfort and practicality.
The furniture carries an importance that combines style, functionality and strategy with the environment. Therefore, it’s essential to choose carefully, since it can be your biggest differential in relation to competitors.
For this reason, we have selected some bar chairs taking into account their characteristics to help you with the choice of furniture in your establishment and make all the difference in attracting customers.
1) Comfort
A very important factor for bar stool is comfort. We can say that this factor can be decisive as to the time that the consumer will stay in the establishment. In other words, the more comfortable the bar chair is, the greater the chances of the customer staying in your business for a long time and consequently the greater the consummation.
2) Style
The style of pub stool goes far beyond colors and coverings. It must be contained throughout the environment. So, make sure that the layout of the tables and chairs matches not only between each other, but also with the rest of the place: ornaments, facade, painting, design, etc.
Think, above all, about the composition of the project. For example, mixing some furniture materials is an interesting alternative that highlights the style of your bar. Remember that the composition must be in balance to not over do it.
Thinking about functionality when we talk about swivel bar chairs, is the fact that they can offer different applications in terms of usability, changing usage, service dynamics, among other aspects. It’s even valid to have a little daring in this regard, to add more value to your business.
For example, chairs with additional supports and compartments designed for utensils can make serving easier. A chair or bench with support for bags can also enrich the experience of those who frequent the environment.
When we talk about practicality, the ideal is to have bar chairs with good mobility. Therefore, bet on bar stools made with lightweight materials to make mobility easier. If moving furniture is not practical, you and your team are likely to spend a lot of time on these basic routine tasks.
