Essey and symbolic functionalism
In the world of nature, shapes are defined by their function, they form the actual essence of our natural world. In the world of designers, shapes often have a low resemblance to their function, if anything. How many times have we looked at something and wondered what it is or what to use it for?
The world of design is not always in line with the world of nature and that is, this imbalance must be corrected.
The belief of Essey founder John Brauer is that the function and design of the products are reflected in the natural form.
