Jasper Morri­son is a British designer renowned for his refined, under­stated approach to every­day objects. Born in London in 1959, Morri­son studied at Kingston Poly­tech­nic and The Royal College of Art before estab­lish­ing his studio, where he devel­oped a philos­o­phy of Super Normal” design — cham­pi­oning func­tion­al­ity, simplic­ity, and timelessness.

Among his many collab­o­ra­tions with leading global brands, Morri­son has worked exten­sively with Alessi, bring­ing his signa­ture mini­mal­ist aesthetic to the world of kitchen acces­sories. His Pépé le Moko Pepper Mill is a perfect example of his design ethos, offer­ing an elegant, ergonomic form that enhances the act of season­ing. Equally strik­ing is his Socrates Corkscrew, a clever and sculp­tural tool that embod­ies both preci­sion and playfulness.

With a career span­ning furni­ture, light­ing, table­ware, and even books on design, Morri­son remains one of the most influ­en­tial figures in contem­po­rary product design. His work for Alessi exem­pli­fies his ability to create objects that are both highly func­tional and effort­lessly beau­ti­ful — pieces that inte­grate seam­lessly into daily life.
