Antony en Richard Joseph
Twin brothers Richard and Antony Joseph founded Joseph Joseph in 2003, combining their respective experience in product design and business. Antony studied design at Central St Martins, Richard studied industrial design and technology at Loughborough University and business administration at Cambridge University.
The company began after the brothers' father asked them to help at his glass factory. The company, founded by their grandfather, made toughened glass for cooktops, among other things. Richard and Antony were given £10,000 worth of stock to manufacture glass cutting boards, which are still part of the Joseph Joseph range today.
