About Us

My name is Olav Rask, I’m an independent autodidact designer based in Copenhagen.

All though I enjoy all kinds of design, lighting has a special place in my heart. Perhaps because I grew up in Scandinavia where the winter days are very short. Perhaps because of the long tradition of lighting design we have here in Denmark. But definitely because lighting, in my view, is a unique intersection between art and design. Aesthetics play a huge role in lamps. But so does functionality. The difference between good and bad lighting can make or break a decor - and maybe even the mood of a person.

From a design perspective I always enjoyed simplicity and minimalism. I like to incorporate small surprises and architectural elements. I favour real materials such as wood, glass and metals. And lately since the world of additive manufacturing has opened up so many opportunities for small designes like myself to realise their ideas - bio plastics.
