DesignedMade | Tarantula Tealight

DesignedMade was established in March 2009 by product designer Jonathan Krawczuk with the intention of producing a range of simple and striking products, designed and made in Britain. The brand is committed to supporting the UK craft and manufacturing industries and represents an evolution of Britain’s proud industrial heritage – bringing together the ideas and vision of a younger generation with the skills and expertise of traditional manufacturers. DesignedMade has established relationships with local businesses specialising in state-of-theart manufacturing processes and traditional techniques. In this scenario, the role of the brand and designer is not only to design for the end user but for everyone involved in the production process. DesignedMade develops projects that seamlessly blend design, production and packaging, resulting in products that celebrate the skill, knowledge and passion involved in every stage of their creation. The DesignedMade product range is united both by a focus on consistent quality of production and by a strong graphical aesthetic. Many of the designs are based on archetypal forms that have been reinterpreted to create statement pieces that fit perfectly in a modern context. These bold, contemporary products proudly display their materials and the attention to detail involved in their manufacture. DesignedMade products are the embodiment of a process and a philosophy that is innovative, sustainable and responsible.
