BIOGRAPHY
Working from her studio within a shared creative community in Copenhagen’s Amager district, the inquisitive and open nature of designer Anna Søgaard is reflected both within her approach to her practice, as well as the objects and products she creates. Deeply connected to her preferred medium of wood, Søgaard’s design approach is explorative and at times naive, allowing her mind to wander between experiments as constant iterations create a through line from one project to the next. Geometry and a mathematical approach ensures that her final objects are minimal yet intuitive – focusing on doing the most with the least. Fascinated with the way in which people keep and interact with the objects of daily life, her output contains a strong focus on storage furniture. The function of Søgaard’s objects remain open to the user, which helps to build an enhanced dialogue between people and their belongings, as well as the natural qualities of the wood she uses to shape her objects.
