YVES BEHAR

Designer

Fuseproject founder and serial innovator Yves Behar occupies a unique place in the design industry, able to steer Silicon Valley while treading an independent path. His limited-edition cover for us shows him sketching his ‘Sayl’ chair, a now iconic design first revealed in Wallpaper* 11 years ago. His creative process, which he calls ‘a slow, winding road’, is the subject of a new monograph, Designing Ideas, previewed on page 070 in an interview with our transport and technology editor Jonathan Bell.
