Tarmo Luisk - a man who experiments between product design and art
His is a compromise between designer and artist to do a bit of everything. To make products that sell and pay off economically but also in order to stay healthy he sometimes makes one-off designs as well.
Luisk’s work is a considered compromise between detail and smartness. He is a perfectionist in design and very critical of himself. He may even redo a sketch of an item a hundred times; it is only important that he himself is pleased with the final result. But most importantly – he believes that design has to be witty. There is always a small trick in his work. He enjoys giving witty titles to his works and so his public looks at his design work through the prism of humour. Luisk has had many solo exhibitions, participated in group exhibitions and entered competitions; he has won all the design prizes and awards on offer in Estonia.
