Andreas Klipping Design

Andreas Klippinge specializes in sustainable design for industrial manufacturing in furniture, lighting, and everyday objects. He was educated at the Linnaeus University in Växjö, Sweden, where he continues to reside and operate his studio, since 2011. He holds a BFA in design with a focus on sustainable development.

"I believe that my design is perceived as functional, inviting, and simple. Human behavior is often the source of my inspiration, along with references from design and art history. The end product should be humble toward the user, include details that improve everyday life, have a long lifespan, be recyclable, and please the eye."

The studio has a fascination with high quality and industrial production, and enjoys working in close collaboration to design products that reflect the client's values and the needs of the market.

A sustainable design perspective runs through all partnerships in the form of conscious material choices and manufacturing processes that consider not only economic and technical, but also environmental and social aspects.

Skapande Skola / studiebesök Lammhult(s)


Omgång I av Skapande Skola avslutades i samband med ett studiebesök i möbelmeckat Lammhult. Det innebar att fyra stycken 8:e klasser från Fagrabäckskolan i Växjö besökte Lammhults Möbler där marknadschef Thomas Samuelsson guidade, Designarenan där Johan Sjöberg VD i Möbelriket berättade om deras verksamhet och avslutades med besök samt uppgifter att lösa på Svennsons i Lammhult. Under höstterminen har de ca 100 eleverna i grupper om två jobbat med att ta fram en sittanordning för en specifik målgrupp och miljö. Ca 250 genererade ideér har blivit 50 modeller med tillhörande rapporter, inte illa! Snart är det dags igen, då omgång II drar igång med fyra nya 8:e klasser – min roll är bland annat att fungera som handledare, inspiratör och föreläsare.

Working with circles


In the studio – my current design project combines circles with circles. The endless universal form of the circle is very interesting to work with or perhaps impossible to work without. The circle will always do the job for you, form wise. So my work is to treat them with the right proportions and to give the circles' function. The project consists, so far, of four different furnitures or rather tools for people in modern living spaces and being in their twenties or early thirties.

Photos by AKD for the Linnaeus University School of Design's workshop at the migration housing Rönnedal in Alvesta. The students got to visit people who have just arrived to Sweden and who are more or less just waiting for the decision whether they are able to stay here... or not. In the evening students and immigrants met up to discuss how design can contribute to the current situation in the Rönnedal area.
