Kieren Jones

PAD Prize Nominee 2012

Kieren Jones is a designer, maker and researcher based in London, producing small-scale architecture and design interventions in response to the built environment around him. Through his work, Kieren is particularly interested in exploring the notions of amateurism, industry, production and the position of craft in the 21st Century.

Together with Studio Swine, Kieren is currently working on ‘The Sea Chair Project’, a research initiative, that examines how existing off-shore industries can be harnessed to harvest, process and manufacture products made from marine micro-debris. In 2012 The Sea Chair Project was awarded the Sustain Award from the Royal College of Art and is currently being exhibited at the Eyebeam Gallery in New York.
