PearsonLloyd
Tom Lloyd and Luke Pearson met while studying at England's Royal College of Art in the early 1990’s. The London-based PearsonLloyd studio was founded in 1997 based on their shared desire to combine furniture and product design. They work a number of design disciplines, including furniture, consumer products, transport, and the public realm.
The designers have written that their "desire is to produce compelling solutions that are intelligent, appropriate and timeless, and contribute to what for us, is the still embryonic craft of industrial design."
PearsonLloyd's work includes: Virgin Atlantic Airway’s Upper Class Suite (2003); arange of walk-in showers for Ideal Standard (2005); a street lighting system by Artemide for The City of Westminster (2004); bus shelters and way-finding system for Sheffield City (2007); and numerous furniture projects for Walter Knoll, Bernhardt Design, Kokuyo, Tacchini, and Allermuir. The studio was selected from over 150 companies to be one of four designated product design consultancies for Transport for London (TFL) until 2009.
