Simon Hasan is a contemporary designer practising in Shoreditch since 2008. With his trademark use of the ancient leather techniques of Cuir Bouilli, Hasan fuses craft with industrial processes.
Hasan’s work has been widely exhibited at leading design fairs including Design Miami/Basel, and is in the permanent collections of the UK Crafts Council, Fondazione Fendi and the Gewerbe Museum.
From his Shoreditch studio, Hasan creates both one-off and production pieces for sale through galleries and design stores worldwide.
Hasan’s studio and showroom is part of the historic Boundary Estate, Britain’s first social housing project. Lying in a quiet enclave in the heart of Shoreditch, visitors can discover the glorious red brick buildings around Arnold Circus bandstand and its tree-lined streets. Neighbours include House of Toogood, Rochelle School Canteen, Leila’s Café, Hostem and The Blue Mountain School.
