Studio Alexander Hinnerskov
Studio Alexander Hinnerskov is a creative practice using design to create objects for everyday use. The work of the studio is based on an intimate study and ongoing research of the objects and materials that we interact with on a daily basis. Exploring design beyond function and aesthetics, the studio is driven by a curiosity of the more complex and intangible relationships and systems that exist between people and objects. This includes areas such as circular systems, digital manufacturing, human behaviour, craft techniques and cultural traditions.
Studio Alexander Hinnerskov was established in 2017 by Japan-born Danish designer Alexander Hinnerskov and is based in Copenhagen, Denmark. Alexander holds a master’s degree in Industrial Design from Kolding Design School where he specialised in sustainability and circular systems for the furniture and interior design industry.
Studio projects are completed by a solid design process drawn from extensive experience with designing home accessories, furniture, lighting and interiors for clients such as Fredrikson Stallard, Tomasz Starzewski, Eva Menz, Torsten Neeland, SMALLrevolution among others. This includes projects for David Gill Galleries, Iittala, Swarovski, Cartier, Alexander McQueen, AIAIAI, HORN Bordplader, Mogens Hansen Denmark, Adidas and more.
