Biography
Bruce Mau founded his studio, Bruce
Mau Design (BMD), in 1985. Since then
the studio has garnered considerable
attention after the release in 1995
of the award-winning and critically
acclaimed S,M,L,XL, designed
and conceived by Bruce Mau with Rem
Koolhaas. Life Style, Bruce’s
monograph on design culture and the
work of the studio, was published worldwide
by Phaidon in 2000.
BMD has gained international recognition
for its expertise and innovation in
identity articulation, research and
conceptual programming, print design
and production, environmental signage
and wayfinding systems, and exhibition
and product design. In recent years,
studio output has extended to dance
performances, video installations and
ventures into the fields of architecture,
urban planning, landscape design and
education. The Institute without Boundaries,
the most immediate radical undertaking,
is a studio-based lab formed out of
a belief that the future will demand
a new breed of designer, a generalist
with the capacity to articulate possibilities.
