Nathan Anthony Furniture last week announced that Lead Designer and Co-founder Tina Nicole has been named to The World’s Leading Design Names for 2018 by Design et al magazine.
This fall, Nicole also received two International Design and Architecture Awards (IDAA), also organized by Design et al, for Nathan Anthony’s Dali chair and Minx wing sofa.
Design et al is a U.K.-based publication reporting on the global design industry and has been issuing the annual IDAA awards since 2011. Nominees receive votes from industry professionals and the magazine’s readers. More than 60,000 votes were cast in the International Product Design Award 2017 competition.
The World’s Leading Design Names list was started in 2015 to recognize top talents in the areas of product and interior design. Nicole will be among those profiled in a special issue of Design et al early next year.
Nicole shares the recognition for 2018 with Lord David Lindley, a bespoke furniture designer and 2nd Earl of Snowdon, Queen Elizabeth’s second nephew; and Joanna Wood, one of Britain’s leading luxury interior designers.
Nathan Anthony Furniture is a custom upholstery manufacturer, founded in 2005 by Nicole and Khai Mai. As Lead Designer, Nicole is known for her experimentation with specialty construction techniques, in the application of fabric and leather to upholstery frames.
