After three years in the design field he decided he needed a change, Risborg began studying medicine. His work with human anatomy and what he calls "architecture of the human body", Asger Risborg's passion for design was soon fired up again.

“I find lighting fascinating. It is both a practical and essential tool that enables us to unfold our lives after the sun sets. At the same time, it is an aesthetic element that affects us and our surroundings. It transforms the appearance of materials and shapes. It changes the atmosphere. Everything changes with the light." - Asger Risborg
