Laurids Gallée

During his study at the Design Academy Eindhoven in 2011 Gallée noticed that his motivation as designer is less fueled by the functionality of one an object, but more on material experimentation and the history of applied arts.

After his graduation in 2015 he started working in a creative production workshop, to deepen his understanding of contemporary production processes and develop manufacturing skills with various materials.

Driven by the wish to put his own ideas into form he started his studio in 2017.
Galléeʼs work combines his understanding of craftsmanship with a deep passion for material, as well as his personal interest for drawing and illustration. His designs are known for crossing boundaries between the old and the new, and often draw inspiration from folkloric tales and stories. Together with his use of contemporary machinery and processes, the objects coming out of Galléeʼs workshop in Rotterdam create somewhat of a classic-contemporary fusion.
