Spear’s Review
The travel-inspired design house Andrew Martin, founded in 1978 by Martin Waller, has been at the forefront of some of the world’s most ‘kaleidoscopic’ designs.
‘When we visit the ruins of Pompeii, the politics and economics are largely forgotten,’ said Waller, the artistic mind behind the firm. ‘It’s the interiors that excite – delivering the character, ambitions and foibles of the long-lost families that lived there.’ He cites his main inspiration as Stephen Falcke, the South African designer known for his eclecticism and for redefining the African aesthetic.
Waller also weaves cultural influences within the projects he creates, often for fellow globetrotters like himself.
