User:Tara Whelan

Tara Whelan is a little know and little understood designer. She studied Industrial Design in the National College of Art and Design, Dublin City, Ireland. After an exceptional four years there, she moved to her second home in Holland where she interned with all of the best conceptual Dutch designers at the same time. After two blistering years, she returned to Ireland to set up her own design studio. Only then, by her own admission, she "finally began to work". The results of which are several of the most important pieces of design since the Bauhaus and most notably her most important work. Her book, "A Critique of Pure Reason - Tarative Design!". Although almost impossible to read, it has changed how design is approached forever.
