Andreas Klipping Design

Andreas Klippinge is a sustainable designer with an innovative mindset, specializing in design for industrial manufacturing of furniture, lighting and functional everyday objects.
He believes that the key to good design is simplicity and to let human behaviors be the source of inspiration. The final product should be humble towards the user, long lasting, effective and include details that improve everyday life and give the eyes satisfaction.

AKD has a fascination for industrial production and values close collaboration with a limited number of companies. A sustainable design perspective runs through all partnerships in the form of conscious material choices and manufacturing processes, that not only take economical but also environmental and social aspects into account.

Skapande Skola / Model making


I'm still engaged in Skapande Skola on Fagrabäck school in Växjö. This is my fourth round since fall of 2010 as a mentor and source of inspiration for the school's eighth graders. The teams, with two pupils in each, have together with me selected their best idea for some kind of sitting device suiting a team specific target group and currently work is underway for all teams to produce scale models of their sketches and drawings.

The Swedsih Arts Council's Skapande Skola is designed to strengthen collaboration between schools and professional culture. The goal is that pupils will have access to all expressions of culture and that their opportunities for personal creativity increases.
