Bertjan Pot is a designer, probably best known for his Random Light (1999). The light started as a material experiment, which is basically the start of each product created by Studio Bertjan Pot. The outcome is usually an interior product showing a fascination for techniques, structures, patterns and colors. Most experiments start quite impulsively by a certain curiosity for how things would function or how something would look. From there Bertjan takes on challenges with manufacturers to explore possibilities and push the boundaries a bit. The reward for each challenge is a new one. Studio Bertjan Pot works with manufacturers such as Arco, Established & Sons, Feld, Gelderland, Montis, Moooi and Richard Lampert.

The Magic Marker Carpets started off as felt tip pen-drawings. When Bertjan Pot re-discovered the color surprises of magic markers, he knew that he was on to something and came up with the impressive Magic Marker rug series for moooi. Primitive hand-drawn weaves seem to go well with the advanced technique of digital printing used to make the moooi rugs come to life.
