Easy Rider by Danny Venlet

Danny Venlet is not very loquacious, certainly not when it comes to his design work.

Objects, he says, are the result of “an interaction between art, sculpture and function”, and at that Danny prefers to leave it.

The objects will have to manage on their own.

Actually, Venlet’s objects are very well placed to do exactly that, to ‘speak for themselves’, as their formal and material language is readily understood and remembered.

And what’s more, it is not just always themselves they talk about!

These objects redefine the space that surrounds them - respectfully, yet with a relativating sense of humour.

The objects of Danny Venlet, for being discreet, are no less present.

For Bulo’s ‘Carte Blanche’ collection Venlet designed Easy Rider, a mobile object that is at once table and chair, in which minimal means are used to attain maximal flexibility in terms of both movability and scope.

Easy Rider is applicable everywhere: at home, in hotel lobbies, conference centers, airport lounges.

A place to sit and rest, with laptop and mobile phone near at hand, surfing the internet, or taking notes the old-fashioned way.

Roll several together and a working surface is created around which to gather for a business meeting or a relaxed get-together.

Danny Venlet was born of Dutch parents in Victoria
