Karel Boonzaaijer + Pierre Mazairac

The collab­o­ra­tive work of Karel Boon­za­ai­jer + Pierre Mazairac began at Pastoe, where they worked together on various furni­ture designs, includ­ing the L‑160 furni­ture series. In 1980 they founded their own design company, Boon­za­ai­jer and Mazairac and Part­ners, where they special­ized in indus­trial design and archi­tec­ture. Their design philos­o­phy focuses on creat­ing furni­ture that is a compo­nent of the overall archi­tec­ture of a space. Together they are known for their func­tional seating and for the stun­ning work they create for a variety of clients. Collab­o­ra­tions and client work included Pastoe, Hennie de Jong, Leolux, Metaform, Castelijn, Arco, Apage, and IKEA.

The Vision Storage System designed by Karel Boon­za­ai­jer + Pierre Mazairac for Pastoe is perhaps the most compre­hen­sive modular cabinet storage system ever created.
