He realised he was interested in more than just the object and its manufacturing process, and wanted to explore the social context and values associated with products. An MA in Design Products at the Royal College of Art in London fostered his interest in advertising and the construction of meaning through image.<br /><br />Finn's RCA show investigated the potential of advertising techniques in product design, in particular looking at how mechanisms such as juxtaposition, humour and surprise can function in products as opposed to adverts. Finn’s Flat Life Lights are currently in development with Artemide, an Italian lighting company. He has exhibited at Design Mai in Berlin, the Salon di Mobil, Milan and the Design Museum, London.<br /><br />Contact Info:<br />t: +44 (0) 7718990408<br />e: finn@finnmagee.com<br /><i><br />Photographs: Emma Wieslander and Bahbak Hashemi-Nezhad<br />Photographs of photographs: Luke Hayes</i>
