I was really impressed by the creativity of all the designs. However there was one clear winner for me..." Philip Parkinson, Founder and Owner of Philip Martyn Design
MIAMI (PRWEB) December 18, 2019
Andres Ortiz topped the list for Best Billiard Table Design with his piece Unapologetically Horizontal in this year's International Billiard Design Competition. When asked to describe his work he replied, Through the use of the horizontal axis this pool table aims to reimagine the way an object occupies space. Opposing itself to the well adopted vertical hierarchy that most pool tables employ, it uses horizontal planes to glide through space in an unimposing manner, while visually engaging with the user. The object becomes a manifestation of a repeating horizon line.
Created by Billiards By Brandt, this years International Billiard Design Competition was comprised of industry experts including past principal of Society Billiards and luxury real estate agent Shelly Abramowitz, VP of City National Bank and member of the Haitian-American Chamber of Commerce Natacha Alexandre, owner of Golden West Billiards Rob Brostoski, Sr. VP of Parker International Linda Hein, Principal of J.D. Ireland Interior Joe Ireland, Executive Team Manager of Brooklyn Boulders Paul Kabacinski, VP of JKL Design Ashley Langer, Founder and Owner of Philip Martyn Design Philip Parkinson and Studio Manager for Hospitality IDDI Ashley Squires.
Without full knowledge of the technology available within the billiard Industry, it is always a pleasure to see how designers push the boundaries of standard materials to provide a bespoke statement piece not to be found in any catalog or interior space to date. This in turn forces a continuous evolution and challenge to the construction technology of a time old tradition that is the game of billiards, Ashley Squires- Studio Manager for Hospitality IDDI.
The 2019 International Billiard Design Competition evolved through a need to recognize and celebrate creativity, innovation and those pushing the bounds of creative excellence in all forms of billiard table design. Dan Brandt is dedicated to furthering creative form in the billiards industry and administers this distinguished competition with the goal of raising awareness of individuals who have the creative talent to go beyond the ordinary.
I was really impressed by the creativity of all the designs. However there was one clear winner for me - I was especially impressed by the originality, the design and the aesthetic quality of the winning submission. It really took on board the competition brief and came up with an innovative, stylish and exciting billiard table! I cant wait to see the finished product, said Philip Parkinson- Founder and Owner of Philip Martyn Design.
About Billiards By Brandt: Similar to commissioning artists for their unique abilities, Billiards by Brandt clients can commission Dan for one-of-a-kind pool tables made precisely to their liking and desired specifications. Billiard tables are not only art, but also can showcase art, says Dan, and no better illustration of this is the table he produced to exhibit internationally acclaimed artist Walter Gaudneks painting St. Denis and Goyas Missing Skull as billiard cloth. Hes also the expert go-to whenever there is a special request. Just ask Linda Hein, SVP of The Parker Company. Whether it is a lacquer white billiard /dining table with matching shuffleboard for a Miami luxury condo, or leisure gaming equipment for use on private islands, she contacted Dan who made it happen on time, and also oversaw the installation.Billiards by Brandt produces all items cradle to grave under Dans direction and supervision, and ensures clients an efficient process by having him as the point of contact in all transactions. Dan helps guide architects, designers, developers and even inspired homeowners towards the table they envision. And once production begins, an open invitation is extended for all clients to tour the workshop and see their tables being made.
