James Irvine RDI (1958 – 18 February 2013) was a British industrial designer who created furniture and product designs for many well known companies and brands such as Artemide, B&B Italia, Cappellini, Foscarini, Ikea, Magis, Muji, Thonet, and WMF.[1][2] He once described the product designer's job as “the work of an unknown hero.”[3]

Early life and education

Irvine was the son of the architect and designer Alan Irvine[4][5] and his first wife, Betty.[6] He obtained his bachelor's degree in industrial design from the Kingston Polytechnic (now University) alongside fellow designers Jasper Morrison and Michael Young. He subsequently earned a master's degree from the Royal College of Art, and then moved to Milan to work for Olivetti in 1984.[7] He also worked for one year at the Toshiba Design Center in Tokyo.[8]

Work and career

In 1988 Irvine opened a design studio in Milan, initially collaborating with Cappellini and SCP. He also worked with Ettore Sottsass and became a partner at Sottsass Associati. In 1999 he designed the Mercedes-Benz O530 Citaro bus for the city of Hannover and proposed an accompanying design for the city's bus shelters in preparation for Expo 2000.[9]

Death and legacy

Irvine died of pneumonia in 2013 at the age of 54 and is buried at the Maggiore cemetery in Milan. He is survived by his wife, designer Maria Laura Rossiello Irvine, and two sons Giacomo and Giorgio.[6][10]

In 2015 Phaidon Press published a monograph about his work and life with contributions from many of his collaborators and contemporaries including: designers Michele De Lucchi, George Sowden, Stefano Giovannoni [it], Thomas Sandell, Jasper Morrison, Konstantin Grcic, Naoto Fukasawa, Alberto Meda and Marc Newson; design impresario Giulio Cappellini; design critics Deyan Sudjic and Francesca Picchi.[17][18][19] With the publication of the book, the Triennale Design Museum hosted a tribute to Irvine titled "Stories about James" to celebrate the life and work of the designer.[20]

His eponymous company "Studio James Irvine" continues under the guidance of his wife, the architect and Art Director Marialaura Rossiello Irvine.[21][22]
