The greatest source of inspiration for me is nature. Nature touches all my senses and for me it is an indispensable friend in the design process and nature plays a vital role in my passion for playing with colours. Over the years I have developed a love for Pastorelli; this technique embraces strictness and minimalism as well as allowing me to show my high-spirited side.

Rune Stones
My contemporary interpretations of historic rune stones are made from glass that is initially hand blown then painstakingly cut using Battuto and sandblasting techniques. Each piece embraces both my fascination with the passing of time and my admiration for this ancient craft.
Dating from 800AD to 1500AD, there are around 3000 of these majestic Rune Stones, these “letters from the past” scattered across Scandinavia. My Rune Stones express a humility for the incomparable precision, skill and level of detail found in the craftsmanship of the past and I am fascinated by the times before the opportunity was there to press “delete”; a time when errors were unchangeable.
