Interview with Nikolay Vladykin

I am fascinated by the process of finding, developing and materializing an idea - it's like magic

I don't think I've become one, but I've always been one. Of my own free will :)

I think a great designer differs from a good one in his uniqueness and aspiration - he embodies his own ideas no matter what

I want to create a bicycle car, but this requires some external support

sincerity, attentiveness and aspiration

Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance, Philip Stark, Jaime Tresserra

Then I would have become a composer, I love music

For me, design is a way of knowing, expressing and influencing

To make people's living easier, more comfortable and more beautiful

Design improves the quality of life. Using good subjects makes people happier and more efficient

Both. These are interrelated processes

Cool! I missed it so much. Now I will create something else and different

I really liked one funny definition of a subject designer that I once heard. The subject designer draws poorly, models poorly, and visualizes poorly but he creates beautiful things

Kai Ross Design Studio was established to realize my creative aspirations. It mainly creates furniture, lamps and accessories, but it also conducts experimental research, for example, in the field of optics and new types of vehicles. The range of studio interests is very wide, but not to the detriment of the quality of each of them.

Design means a lot to me. This is, for example, a way of knowing the world around us. When creating an object, I first delve into the world of ideas and feelings. Then, as we concretize, into the world of matter and technology. Each world has its own characteristics and patterns that need to be learned and taken into account. This way is also "design" for me

definitely furniture. the objects that we surround ourselves with in our interiors

at the moment, this is a Balestra - a multifunctional lounge table. It managed to realize not only the idea of a new combined lounge furniture, but also the soulful aesthetics of modernity in three main materials - wood, metal and glass

It was the logo for machinery corporation in 1997

My favorite material, without a doubt, is wood, but I strive to complement it with elements of metal and glass

I guess it's not a matter of time or condition. It's a matter of inquiry and concentration. I'm the most creative when I have to be.

First, it is the depth and quality of the idea. I'm not interested in repeating something that already exists or bringing something into the world that doesn't benefit people.

undoubtedly joy) the joy of discovering everything new, finding full-fledged and uncompromising solutions

Joy and satisfaction

Place, time and people

Originality of form and function

This is more of a design style field than just a design style - within the boundaries of modernism-minimalism-bionics and hi-tech

I work with some remotely, and I come to some to learn more about their production capabilities in order to better adapt the design to them

there are several of them, but the "passion & measure" is probably at the top of the list

If we are talking about a sketch, it takes at least 30 seconds, 20 of them to find a pencil and paper) but some ideas have been implemented for years - too complicated or expensive

It's hard to say. Each experience brings something different, and only time will tell how important it is.

I want to produce serial furniture in the modernist style and participate in the Milan and Dubai exhibitions

I create most of the projects on my own, but if necessary, I form a temporary team of professionals
