Fascinated by light

Light is one of Frederik’s passions, having completed his graduation project about light, and started his career as a lighting designer for Philips. What fascinates him is that something intangible such as light can emerge from a tangible object.

You can do a lot with light: direct, indirect, diffuse light, reflect, absorb. I’m intrigued how light makes a space come alive. Frederik Delbart, Product Designer

    Sustainability is incredibly important. Frederik: "If I work with the right materials, my designs age beautifully and develop patina. It is important to me that my designs are sustainably developed. I want to know who made them, and how they were made.”

Wandering and wondering

Frederik finds inspiration almost everywhere. For him, this feeling is natural, and it gives him energy. “I get inspired by travel and architecture. When I’m traveling, I intentionally go off the track and get lost in cities. I’m constantly looking in all directions, discovering and paying attention to what’s around me."

In the past, people made fascinating things, as the level of craftsmanship was high. I want to pay homage to that craftsmanship.
