'Quobus' by Marc Newson
Partner Programme

Industrial & Product Design, Interiors & Furniture
With 'Quobus', Marc Newson rethinks the typology of the shelf, presenting pieces of which the modular elements allow for different variations: from a small bookcase to a monumental wall installation. The pieces are made of metal and enamel, in an enthralling new range of pastel colours.
Since Galerie kreo opened in June 1999, Marc Newson has presented three major exhibitions at the gallery in 2000, 2002 and 2004, as well as regularly showing his creations, including the iconic Carbon Ladder (2008). In 2014 he joined Apple as Designer for Special Projects, most notably as part of the design team for the Apple Watch. In 2017 he received the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Salone del Mobile in Milan. Collaborating regularly with prestigious brands and companies in many elds (Qantas Airways, Louis Vuitton, Montblanc, Nike, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Beretta), Marc Newson is recognized as one of the most influential designers of his generation. Born in Sydney in 1963, he has lived and worked in Australia, Japan, France, and the UK, where he now resides. The catalogue raisonné of his limited-edition pieces is currently being edited by Didier Krzentowski.
