about the designer
Sophie Lou Jacobsen is a French-American designer currently based in New York City. She established her studio in 2019, with an initial focus on objects of everyday use, mostly using glass as a medium and exploring the interaction between object and user. Her work stems from the idea that objects have an innate power to enhance their user's mood through form and function. She focuses on simple objects and rituals, to see how she can alter these in ways that are surprising, delightful, and elevate the user experience. She believes that the objects which we surround ourselves with can and should be imbued with a certain poetry, creating a relationship between humans and objects built on mutual respect.

about the designer
Objects for Objects est un studio de mobilier et de design basé à Los Angeles fondé en 2017 par Leonard Bessemer. Charpentier autodidacte, Leonard a fait ses armes en travaillant avec le sculpteur David Thorpe à Berlin. Cette expérience a eu une grande influence sur l'approche sculpturale qu'il a adoptée dans sa pratique du design. L'objectif de Leonard est de créer des meubles et des objets de collection et appréciés pour leur existence en tant qu'objets visuels et spatiaux ; pas seulement pour leur fonction. Il le fait dans l'espoir qu'ils seront mieux soignés, réparés et transmis à mesure qu'ils vieilliront. Le travail de Leonard a été présenté dans les pages d'Architectural Digest, Elle Decor et Sight Unseen, entre autres.
