Ahm & Lund

Copenhagen-based design duo Ahm & Lund have a shared belief that craft and design should work as one to create long-lasting sustainable designs. This belief comes from their backgrounds in cabinetmaking. The hands-on approach that Signe Lund has in cabinet making and craftsmanship brings an element of materiality to the design process. Her attention to detail and deep material understanding create products such as the Fritz Hansen Clam.

The second half of this design duo is Isabel Ahm who is a trained architect. Her passion for design and ability to create objects that form relationships with people is seen within her process. Isabel Ahm strives to appreciate materials being used, which is where the collaboration with craftswoman Signe Lund came about. Their combination of passions for design and materials creates objects for everyday use that inspire and reflect their joint talent and skills.

"Our studio is very much like a symbiosis; it is tricky to distinguish between who is doing what and who has what style. In some sense, we feel that the object holds its own idea of what it wants style-wise, and so designing can then feel a bit like being a midwife." - Ahm & Lund
