Frederik Gustav — Design studio

We strive to create objects that possess an artistic depth to them, and through their materiality, composition and function elicit a sense of wonder and joy.

About:

Frederik Gustav consists of designers Frederik Weber and Gustav Dupont. The work of the Copenhagen-based duo shifts across various functions, scales and contexts to create objects and installations that merge design, architecture and art. Focusing on the joy and excitement experienced through experimentation into building and construction techniques, their work transfers these emotions to the user through sensory objects that play with function, composition and materiality. The duo’s own curiosity towards materials such as wood is evident through exposed structures that retain and highlight the techniques that produce them. They utilise craftsmanship as an expression of narrative, illuminating stories centered around context of place, societal tendencies or notions of beauty. The process of each project assists in initiating the next, creating a strong structural and aesthetic language across their body of work.
