innermost
Innermost was founded in 1999 by designers Steve Jones and Russell Cameron in London. They collaborate with a huge reservoir of design talent, particularly from London, and although they initially focused on lighting they have since built a much wider collection.Launching any design is always a hard task; the simplest of objects always hide the pain that went into their creation. As Innermost points out, every designer that brings them a valuable idea has a different feeling about the object and it is Innermost's job to balance and manage these needs and make sure the market understands, accepts and desires them.
Today Innermost has two parts, one focuses on crafting what you see and the other on doing this same thing for a select group of quality clients, contributing manufacturing and design consultancy to other peoples ranges and projects.
At last count they were involved in projects or had distribution in 32 countries... (quite a challenge when you consider most of them seemed to want a different kind of plug!). This internationalism is reflected in the origins of the designers whose Innermost represents, now coming from 12 different nations.
"The world we have discovered is packed with talented people. The more we travel the more we see, the more interesting people we meet, truly a privileged journey."
-Steve Jones, Russell Cameron and the Innermost team.
