Andreas Kowalewski
Born in Berlin, Andreas Kowalewski began his path in design with a cabinetmaker apprenticeship, after which he went on to study Industrial Design at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen. Since his graduation in 2006, he has developed products, furniture and lighting for some of the leading companies in the design field. In 2012, Andreas founded his Amsterdam based studio, where he works on various design solutions, covering the overall spectrum of the design process.
Andreas’ work is strongly influenced by his passion for experimenting with materials, construction principles and innovative technologies. He is driven by an ambition to create design solutions that have meaning and reduce complexity, while using as little material as possible.
“I am continuously searching for purity in form and detail as well as perfection in well-made objects. Purposeful objects, which value craftsmanship and inspire the imagination of people.”
