For over a quarter-century, Pearson Lloyd has designed functional, beautiful and efficient systems that serve the needs of clients, users and society at large. Operating across multiple sectors, from healthcare to transport and workspace to architecture, the studio has produced an enormously varied body of work, navigating the rapidly evolving design landscape with drive and innovation. Today, Pearson Lloyd is one of London's most admired and accomplished studios, with a proven record of preempting changing social and workplace behaviours, embracing innovations in materials and manufacturing, navigating trends in a rapidly transforming world, and helping its clients do the same.
The act of making has driven human and cultural evolution for millennia, enhancing experience through ingenuity and innovation. In recent times, this creative process has been monetised, industrialised, and globalised, contributing to rapid social, economic, and environmental changes. In response, it becomes necessary to rethink the meaning of 'well made.' Curated by Pearson Lloyd, this exhibition series examines 'well made' through new forms of production and materiality that address the needs of a more ecological future. Godt Lavet, the second instalment of Well Made, invites the local community to define their responses to the proposition first introduced at Pearson Lloyd’s London studio and gallery in 2024.
