컬렉션: Mette Schelde

The Danish architect Mette Schelde (b. 1985) works experimental with a starting point in function and everyday situations. In 2012 she established her studio from where she designs furniture, lighting and architecture. Her designs are functional and made of simple constructions in a sculptural universe. She combines traditional materials such as wood, glass and metal with sensual functions created to be used. With simple lines and compositions, she explores new methods and technologies that point both back and forth in a mixture of tradition and renewal.

The process takes place across disciplines of sketching, building and testing and is driven by intuition and her written manifesto from 2016. Her background in architecture is evident during the design process, where the interaction between the object, the context and the human is an important part of her approach and she plunge herself into the function in all its aspects. Mette Schelde Studio has received a number of nominations and awards and is supported by the Danish Art Foundation. She works with Skagerak, Fritz Hansen & Please Wait to be Seated and others.
