Tom Price
Tom Price was born in London and continues to live and work in the capital. His background in Fine Art informs his approach to design, which is often very sculptural in both appearance and concept.
Tom studied under Ron Arad and Jurgen Bey at the Royal College of Art from where he graduated with a Masters degree in 2007.
Recent projects include design and architectural commissions and limited edition sculptural furniture. His work has been bought by galleries and private collectors throughout the world, and are included in permanent collections of museums such as the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMoMA), and the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe in Hamburg, Germany.
