Furniture and design are in constant interaction with our daily lives, when we sit, stand, or lie down. This interaction is the foundation for Martin's vantage point. Form, function and price are controlling factors in his design process and in that order. The form comes first and then the function gives the constraints that the form must adhere to. As a designer Martin has a sustainable outlook and aspires to create furniture that can withstand daily usage while patinating beautifully allowing it to be passed down through generations. Martin has studied at the Royal College of Design in Copenhagen. |
