Linde Hermans - Wear them Pearls, Girls
Linde Hermans is a Belgian designer, who works in different disciplines such as product design, scenography, installations in public space, … Her work balances on the boundary between art and design.
The little things in everyday life fascinate her. She uses the power of unusual associations and often re-uses existing industrial products, which she subtly transforms into a new poetic object. Her strength lies in the combination of a remarkable affinity for crafts with an unexpected industrial mentality.
In 1997 Linde obtained her Master’s Degree in Product Design with magna cum laude. After internships at Li Edelkoort in Paris, Jorge Pensi Diseno in Barcelona and the studio of Piet Stockmans she lectured at the Eindhoven Design Academy, designed street furniture, restyled the Tongeren prison and started her own label ‘Rode Schoentjes’.
In 2007 she was presented with the Henry Van de Velde Award for Young Talent and for these awards she has been nominated several times in recent years. The Chaise Longue, a price winning design from 2000, has been part of the Thierry Barbier-Mueller (Geneva, CH) collection since 2010 and of the Design Museum (Gent, B) since 2021.
