Yinka Ilori
Olay Yinka Ilori is a British-Nigerian artist and designer known for his playful design language and the bold use of bright colours. His work includes architecture, public spaces and sculptural installations, interior design, graphic design, homewares, textiles, fashion, and furniture. He is a storyteller who uses design as a medium, often referencing his British and Nigerian heritage. The New York Times Style Magazine described Ilori as "one of '12 Talents Shaping the Design World'", and Abitare referred to him as belonging "to a more open-minded and inclusive generation that sees design as offering a possible response to social and environmental changes."
