Tord Boontje was born in The Netherlands. He studied industrial design at the Design Academy in Eindhoven from 1986 to 1991 and received a Masters degree from the Royal College of Art, London (1994). In 2005, Boontje moved from London to Bourg-Argental, France, where Studio Tord Boontje is now located. I've been intrigued by his work since the first time I found it and we're currently shopping for his curtains for our home.
