  • Aficionado: Marc Newson Australian Designer Marc Newson Reflects on the Destinations That Have Most Influenced His Work, and Explains Why He Hates Design Hotels
    The Telegraph July 8, 2013 GAGOSIAN GALLERY Aficionado: Marc Newson Australian designer Marc Newson reflects on the destinations that have most influenced his work, and explains why he hates design hotels. Australian designer Marc Newson When, as a young boy, Marc Newson discovered the space-age Jetsons – 1960s comic-book characters who zipped around in perfectly-formed aerocars – the Australian knew what he wanted to do: design futuristic products. Today, in addition to more static designs such as his Orgone Stretch sofa, he has created the highly mobile Kelvin40 personal jet (commissioned by the Fondation Cartier in Paris), the limited-edition Aquariva boat and the seats and interiors for the Qantas A380. Since conceiving his beaten-aluminium Lockheed Lounge chaise-longue in 1986, he has spent about half his life travelling around the world, both as a designer and as a judge in international competitions such as the Cartier Concours d’Elegance in Mumbai. Although most of his journeys have been in first class, he says he yearns “to travel in the way I used to when I was younger. Then, there was always time to chill and explore the environment and do whatever activity was right for that place. I used to ski like a maniac for about 25 days a year, and go surfing, hiking and camping. Now ‘travelling’ means sitting on planes” – often, on the Qantas seats he designed himself. Here he reflects on the travel destinations and experiences that have made the greatest impressions and shaped his approach to design. "I love cars, and I have several: a 1950s Ferrari, an Aston Martin in a weird celadon green, an acid-green 1969 Lamborghini… The feeling of freedom, whizzing through beautiful countryside in a beautiful old car, is like nothing else.

The previews will be open to the public at 30 Berkeley Square, London, 22-27 April. The three auctions – DESIGN, EVENING DESIGN, and TIME FOR DESIGN − will be held in the same rooms on 27-28 April.

  • Submission DR588
    TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION ITELLECTUAL PROPERTY // June 15, 2016 My name is Anne-Maree Sargeant, director of AUTHENTIC DESIGN ALLIANCE TM I represent a members-based education platform – our members include industrial designers, furniture designers, makers, lighting designers, retailers, importers, interior designers, architects, media – journalists – bloggers, businesses and consumers – who unite in the sole aim – that fake designer furniture and lighting will become illegal in Australia. As a second, but equally important aim – we educate Australians on the VALUE of original design. Unlike Europe, for example, where design is a natural language among the broader community – Australia has adopted a ‘disposable decorating culture’ – a thinking that – if something breaks – throw it out and get another one. This ‘land fill mentality’ is unsustainable. What ever happen to ‘built to last’? I have invested my 30-year career in the Australian furniture industry. A sector comprised mostly of independent small businesses, who, like myself, work tirelessly to innovate. We embody DESIGN LED INNOVATION. Australians in the design sector are globally successful for perpetually thinking ‘outside the box’ – as a country without boarding neighbours – we have a rich heritage of innovation, invention and creating new ways of doing things – often without direct influence as perhaps our European colleagues might have. In my 30-year career – I have never witnessed a better time to be an Australian furniture, lighting or object designer. Ironically – never has there been a worse time to be an Australian furniture, lighting or object designer. With the UK criminalizing fake designer furniture (April 28, 2016), imposing penalties of up to 10 years jail / £50,000 – protection for British designers was extended from 25 years – to 70 years after the creator’s death – inline with the EU.

  • Grand Designs
    The Sydney Morning Herald August 4, 2009 GAGOSIAN GALLERY Grand designs Marc Newson: "I have always been obsessive. Or selfish. It's a fine line." Catherine Keenan August 4, 2009 Charm, talent and enormous ambition have delivered design guru Marc Newson an enviably glamorous lifestyle, writes Catherine Keenan. Imagine a small boy growing up in suburban Australia in the 1970s. Any time he doesn't absolutely have to be elsewhere, he runs in his short pants to the garage to make things with his grandfather. He makes billycarts mostly, or tries to, but he also loves taking things apart to see how they work: radios, bicycles, watches. It is an optimistic time. For the boy, because of his youth; for the world, because man recently landed on the moon. Still, imagine how the boy's eyes would have widened if someone had said he would one day design a car, a jet, and a rocket. Imagine telling him that an aluminium lounge he would make in his early 20s would later fetch more than a million pounds at auction. Imagine telling him that his chairs would be displayed in museums around the world (including the NGV) and his dish rack would become a kitchenware icon. He would surely have laughed. A chair in a museum? Designing a dish rack? "You couldn't be a designer back then," says Marc Newson. "It just didn't exist. I thought I might go into some sort of trade." Since then, the Midas touch of design has danced over every corner of our lives, and few people have benefited from this as much as the versatile Newson.

  • ANDREW LAVERY Hello and Welcome to the First of Our Alumni Series ‘Art of Influence’
    TRANSCRIPT Sydney Ideas podcast Art of influence: in-conversation with Marc Newson Tuesday 28 July 2020 ANDREW LAVERY Hello and welcome to the first of our alumni series ‘Art of Influence’. I'm Andrew Lavery, the Director of Sydney College of the Arts. So the ‘Art of Influence’ series invites our alumni to reflect on their careers, artistic practice and broader cultural themes that inform their work. The idea is to both celebrate world class alumni who have studied at SCA; with a view to gaining insight, knowledge and inspiration for the next generation of great talent here at SCA, and the university; and current creative practitioners of all descriptions, and the interested members of the general public. Today, I'm delighted to be joined by Marc Newson, CBA. Mark has been described as one of the most influential designers of this generation. He has worked across a wide range of disciplines and his clients include companies such as Apple Louis Vuitton, Montblanc, Hermes, Nike and Dom Perignon. Mark is the only designer represented by the Gagosian Gallery. And leading museums around the world have hosted solo retrospective exhibitions of his industrial design work. He has recently been appointed the chair of the London Design Museum's International Design Council. Mark was born in Sydney and graduated from the University of Sydney, Sydney College of the Arts in 1986. And I'm told by Mark that he studied in the jewellery studio there. It's my great pleasure to welcome him. And thanks for joining us, Marc. MARC NEWSON Yeah, hi everyone.
