Mieke Meijer (Wezep, 1982) graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven in 2006. Since then she works on self initiated and commissioned projects in her Eindhoven based workshop. Mieke Meijer regularly takes part in exhibitions in different contexts both nationally and internationally. In 2011 she presented her work during the Salone del Mobile together with designlabel Vij5, she participated in designing the infrastructure of Depot Basel and exhibited at the Dutch Design Week with Dutch Invertuals, Copy Nature and Yard at work.
Her ‘functional objects’ are the result of an ongoing investigation to the unperceived aesthetics of everyday life. No matter the startingpoint -from products we daily use to industrial machinery-, Mieke Meijer filters the essence and transforms ideas into designs that appeal to the imagination long term. The objects therefore keep their value.
Transparant constructions, clean lines and clear shapes play an important role in Mieke Meijers work. Material and detailing both contribute to a recognisable signature.
Her work is for sale through various galleries and shops in the Netherlands and abroad. For more information please send an email to info@miekemeijer.nl.
