WE DO WHAT WE DO BEST, WE DESIGN
We met at Aarhus School of Architecture in 1989 on a field trip to Bang & Olufsen´s legendary designer Jacob Jensen’s studio.
On the way back, we shared our enthusiasm and agreed to establish our own design studio.
Ever since we have experienced a fantastic synergy, which is still the cornerstone of our studio, where all the design work is carefully carried out by the two of us down to the smallest detail.
SHARING ENERGIES
Design is not an independent activity but must be solved in close cooperation between client and designer.
Successful designs are developed in interdisciplinary teams where the gap between professional groups creates energy, dynamics and progress.
TAILOR-MADE DESIGN PROCESS
All companies are different. We customize the design process to match your business and organization.

” If you can dream it you can do it”
Walt Disney
WHY |
WHY helps us to “live” the user’s needs, understand their dreams, and to develop products, that both users and company can identify with. This journey explores the company history, DNA, values, and attitude, with the purpose to find the company’s reason for being on the marketplace.
HOW |
LOOKING INTO THE PAST TO SEE THE FUTURE
“The Dream Workshop” is part of a process – the design before the design.
The goal of the workshop is on the one hand to identify the strengths and legacy of your brand, defining the company DNA and on the other hand to establish the vision for the future the brand identity with an important balance between tradition and vision.
The workshop illustrates the status quo and provide ideas for a forward-looking direction.
WHAT |
“The Dream Workshop” works in sessions, with the purpose of a 360° illumination of the company and costumer.
This provides a well-founded basis for determining which concept should guide the company’s further development.
WHO |
SHARING ENERGIES
