DDB Spring Market Buzz: Andrew Martin Kick-Off Party (cont.)

Martin Waller, Managing Director of Andrew Martin got the DDB Spring Market started on the right foot, discussing how the showroom translates crafts and cultural traditions found on Martin's world travels into stylish and contemporary creations.

Marketing Associate Millie Massa and Design Professional Jason Lowe chatted with us after the speech and gave us their thoughts on Martin's wild takes.

"Martin Waller is the explorer, the world traveler, the treasure hunter and the designer," said Millie. "He is very Indiana Jones, except the dig is for a fabulous couch instead of the fountain of youth!"

"If you ever have the opportunity to see Martin Waller speak about his extensive world travels, do not miss it," Jason said. "He has been to every faraway place that any of us have ever wanted to visit, and his stories give you direct insight into the aesthetic direction he has taken his company."

Following Martin's speech, the music was turned up and guests relaxed amongst the Andrew Martin collections with a clearer vision of the stories behind them. Martin didn't finish his speech, however, without ensuring us, "exotic lands aren't the only places to shop and find product, but they do define our Company and the source of our inspiration."
