“He viajado mucho por Japón y en los detalles se nota la influencia de aquel mundo. Por consiguiente el jurado, dado que el concurso era anónimo, ha pensado que yo era un diseñador japonés, en cambio ¡era de Basilea!”
Werner Blaser
Born in 1924 and a student of Alvar Aalto, Blaser studied at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago and in Japan. He opened his own studio in Basle in 1959 and for a long time worked with Mies van der Rohe, publishing various books about the latter’s architecture.
His chest of drawer won the Cantù "Prima mostra selettiva - Concorso internazionale del mobile", a competion designed to re-qualify the image of Italian furniture making. The jury included Gio Ponti, Alvar Aalto, Romano Barocchi, Carlo De Carli and Finn Juhl.
