In 2000 Wanders opened Marcel Wanders studio in Amsterdam, gaining attention in 1996 with his Knotted Chair, which paired high tech materials with 'low tech' production methods.[3] Marcel Wanders is a product and interior design studio with clients such as Alessi, Baccarat, Bisazza, Christofle, Kosé, Flos, KLM, Hyatt, Laufen, LH&E Group, Louis Vuitton, Miramar Group, Morgans Hotel Group, Puma, Swarovski.

In 2001, with Casper Vissers, Wanders founded the design company Moooi,[4][better source needed] of which he is co-owner and art director. In 2014 Wanders worked as product and interior designer and art director work in his studio with around 50 international design specialists. They have realized over 1700+ projects[2][better source needed] for private clients and brands such as Cappellini and Flos [it]. Julie Scelfo, writing for the New York Times in 2011 described Wanders as "the Lady Gaga of the design world" for being unconventional, creative and full of energy. Many of his designs combine historical influences with innovative materials.[citation needed]

Wanders received various design prizes, including the Rotterdam Design Prize and the Kho Liang Ie Prize. He has lectured at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Limn, the Design Academy, Nike, IDFA, and FutureDesignDays. In July 2002 Business Week selected Marcel Wanders as one of Europe's '25 leaders of change'.[5] Wanders is an advisory board member[6] of THNK School of Creative Leadership.

Notable projects to date include interior architecture for such as the Andaz Amsterdam Prinsengracht Hotel,[7] Kameha Grand hotel in Bonn,[8] the Mondrian South Beach hotel in Miami,[9] Quasar Istanbul Residences,[10] and the Villa Moda flagship store in Bahrain,[11] as well as private residences in Amsterdam and Mallorca.[citation needed]

In 2015, he was tapped by Revolution Precrafted to design a prefabricated house which he named Eden.[12]

Many of Marcel Wanders' designs have been selected for design collections and exhibitions and featured in magazines.[13] In 2006 he was elected International Designer of the Year by Elle Decoration. Wanders' first solo exhibition, 'Daydreams,’ in 2009, was held at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.[citation needed]
