Creating pieces with an equal focus on sculptural and functional qualities, Rasmus Fenhann works almost exclusively with wood, which he carefully selects for each project. His process combines traditional and sometimes almost forgotten craft techniques with advanced technology and tooling, including CAD sketching, visualization, and processing. Fenhann’s main inspiration source is traditional Japanese woodwork and Danish cabinet making, and his works often incorporate personal interpretations of selected aspects of these craft traditions. His work is also inspired by nature and the mathematical properties of natural forms – universal forms unaffected by human control. Today, he is considered one of the most significant Scandinavian designers within hand-crafted collectibles.
