Geoffrey Lambert

Brussels, Belgium

Geoffrey Lambert (1985, Brussels)
is a self-taught designer/maker/artist who dedicates a broad knowledge of materials and techniques to an intrinsic aesthetic. His field of work covers a broad range. He creates furniture and sculptures or in-situ installations. He is passionate about scenography and exhibition design.

In his design objects, function does not disappear completely, but is no longer the object’s raison d’être. By exploring the process of burning, the maker searches for the soul of the specific wood he holds in hand.
Geoffrey researched this technique for years and continued to refine it. The many varieties of black and the different textures continue to fascinate him. The burning abstracts the wood until only the essence remains, that which comes alive in the imagination. The creative process as a slow attempt to capture what is elusive.

On the basis of his own practice, Geoffrey founded IMAGINAIR together with Katrien, in which the duo brings to life the different media they work with in a multi-disciplinary world.
