Quasar Khanh

Nguyen Manh Khanh (1934 in Hanoi – June 30, 2016 in Ho Chi Minh City), also known as Quasar Khanh, was a French and Vietnamese engineer, an inventor, and a designer. The Vietnamese and French community significantly recognizes him for his inflatable furniture line Aerospace. At the age of fifteen, Khanh moved to Paris, and established himself as the most significant Vietnamese furniture designer of the 20th century. He was one of a handful of designers whose shocking products, in color and in form, were in touch with the renegade spirit of the 1960s.
