About the Designer
Tom Dixon, OBE (born 21 May 1959, Sfax, Tunisia) is a self-taught British designer specialised in welded salvage furniture. He was born in Tunisia to a French/Latvian mother and English father. He moved to Great Britain at the age of 4. He attended Holland Park School where he formed a disco-punk band called Funkapolitan. Dixon has been head of design for the Habitat chain of furniture stores (1997), and of the Finnish furniture manufacturer Artek.His artistic career began when he discovered pleasure in welding while repairing damaged motorcycle frames, after having been forced to leave his band because he broke his leg in a motorcycle accident.
Dixon became known as a designer when his S-Chair was manufactured by Giulio Cappellini. He holds an Honorary Doctorate from Birmingham City University (2004), and was awarded an OBE for services to British Design in 2000. He lives in London with his wife and two daughters and is often seen with his blind and deaf poodle, Molly.
