For episode #26, Jason sits down with old acquaintance and fellow Royal College of Art graduate, the London-based multidisciplinary designer Peter Marigold.

Episode #26 - The World of Product Design With Peter Marigold

Peter Marigold is a London-based product designer who originally studied sculpture at Central St Martins before changing tack and enrolling at the Royal College of Art in 2004. Since then he has created gallery pieces for the likes of Libby Sellers and, more recently, Sarah Myerscough, had furniture and shelving manufactured by SCP and others, as well as creating a porcelain collection for Meissen. Best known for his use of wood, in 2015 he launched a new product FORMcard, essentially a small piece of bio-plastic which can be heated and then moulded, allowing users to mend their own products. His work has been exhibited at New York’s MoMA, Design Miami, Design Museum Holon, the V&amp;A, and the Design Museum in London. He has also created commissions for the likes of Paul Smith, Bloomberg  and The Museum of Childhood. And if that wasn’t enough, he teaches design at London Metropolitan University. In this episode we talk about: his issues with passive consumption and sustainability; his collecting habit; why he has an odd relationship with wood; his problem with art; and the joy of keeping a pet giant snail. Perhaps most importantly, we discuss FORMcard, and how it can be used to ‘make, fix and modify the world around us’.  Learn more about Peter hereSign up for my newsletter  hereSupport the show
