HIGH LIFE #11 Aug 2017 17 “我是一位更加以制造为本的设计师” 每一份创作背后，均有背景故事，而迪克森的故事，常在工厂 里发生。 他说，“我经常到访工厂，对物料、制作工艺以及制造技 术等兴趣浓厚。我深入钻研这些领域，而创作灵感往往来自制 造过程，而不是直接与功能挂钩。” 这种功能与制造合二为一的做法，指引着迪克森设计出 风格鲜明的作品。 “I ammore a manufacture based designer” Every object has a story and Tom Dixon’s stories often begin in the factory. “I do a lot of factory visits and I become interested in the materials as well as the crafts and manufacturing techniques,” he says. “I’ve learnt a lot about these and my ideas sometimes come from the process of manufacture rather than relating directly to function.” By bringing the ideas of function and manufacture together, Dixon creates his “objects”.
