Live conversation with designer Joep van Lieshout and Hans Lensvelt for Virtual Design Festival
The third part of our VDF collaboration with Dutch furniture company Lensvelt sees designer Joep van Lieshout discuss his work for the brand in conversation with Hans Lensvelt and Marcus Fairs.
Van Lieshout, who founded his studio Atelier van Lieshout in 1995, is one of this year's Dezeen Awards judges. His work spans art, design and architecture.

For this VDF collaboration, Van Lieshout spoke to Lensvelt's director Hans Lensvelt, a big fan of van Lieshout's work who has collected many of his pieces.
The Dutch designer has created a number of products for Lensvelt, many of which have become "modern classics in the interior design industry," the brand said. These include the AVL Shaker and AVL Office Chair. Atelier van Lieshout's AVL Glyder chair is one of the products he designed for Lensvelt

As well as furniture, Atelier van Lieshout designs more abstract pieces. For Design Miami 2015, the studio created an inhabitable sculpture that is a cross between a luxury lounge and a primitive dwelling.
