Design-Nation: Suzanne Seed Silversmith

Suzanne Seed is a contemporary silversmith based in Norfolk, creating designs which she masterminds from idea conception through to completion of the finished objects. Suzanne creates functional and haptic forms, seeking to make pieces which are well balanced and have strong clean lines. These silver objects are often in sets which playfully interact with each other, although each piece has its own unique character.

Suzanne says, “My work is underpinned by modernist theory and contrast features a lot. I am heavily influenced by brutalist architecture and the texture of concrete and I plan to introduce more reference to this in future pieces. I favour creating groups which interact with each other as well as being individual forms. “

Clean lines and contrast feature heavily throughout her work, and with a balance of form and function Suzanne’s designs are equally as enjoyable to look at as they are to use, touch and hold.
