Anne Brandhøj — Furniture Designer

I am always really curious to explore… I am drawn towards projects where I have to seek out new information, adding skill and knowledge to my practice along the way.

About:

The diversity of Anne Brandhøj’s duel design practices; her sculptural work and the industry focused Bly Studio alongside designer Eva Fly, is a testament to the explorative way in which she approaches her craft. Her sculptural practice is defined by a deep connection to materiality – large sections of fresh timber are hand felled, lathed and then dried. Each piece exposes the individual characteristic of the wood where knots, cracks and growth rings become the hero. Made by hand within her Søborg workshop, her functional sculptures are shaped and formed through a slow, detailed process of creation. While these sculptural pieces are introspective in nature, her work with Bly Studio tackles design issues on a global scale. With a focus on challenging the existing furniture industry and promoting a circular economy through design, Anne and Eva attack each design problem through an iterative process of hand modelling, testing and experiments. The result is contemporary design pieces with a strong focus on functional ergonomics and innovative production practices.
