“John Sebastian captures the essence of modern Scandinavian creative style. The use of artistic expression and quality materials in his design is clever and appropriate. Aesthetically, his understated simplicity is something that interested me greatly as it demands a very considered approach.”
Phillip Rose, General Manager
SONY Design - Centre Europe
“It was a privilege to collaborate with one of the most respected consumer electronic brand in the world. It is always important for me to understand and explore the heritage of the company I am working with. Equally, I like to exploit new technologies and materials in the design process and inject some of my own DNA into it.”
