An Introduction to Poland’s Robert Majkut

09/03/201106/03/2017 by Charlotte J

Last week I became aware of the work of Robert Majkut who was born in Szczecin in 1971 and has become one of the most important leading Polish designers and creator of places with a special character. Since 1988 he has been involved in art as a graphic artist, painter and creator of installations.

He is a man of a breakthrough era and his creations interpret the social and cultural changes in Poland. For Robert the cultural aspect of design is the inalienable permeability of the past and present; his mantra, “the future is tomorrow invented today”.

He has been honoured by the highest authorities of the Repubic of Poland, sector and journalist groups, and among others, nominated for an Elle Style Award.

He is internationally renowned as the one who changes Polish public spaces offering his nation a better quality of life and has designed everything from banks to cinemas.
