About Rasmus

Born 1972, lives and works in Copenhagen

Creating designs with an equal focus on sculptural and functional qualities, Rasmus Fenhann’s works are made in carefully selected natural materials, especially wood. He is considered as one of the most important Scandinavian designers today in the field of handmade art design. His working processes combine traditional, sometimes near forgotten craft techniques with advanced high-tech procedures, including computer based sketching and visualization.

Rasmus Fenhann has a double education, graduating from the Furniture Department of The Danish Design School (now RoyalDanish Academy – Design) in 2003 after completing his training as a Cabinetmaker in 1996. He has exhibited internationally, mainly in Europe and in the United States, and his works are included in important private and public collections, among them the permanent collection of Designmuseum Danmark.

Rasmus Fenhann has received numerous awards, including the Hetsch Silver Medal in 2004, the Finn Juhl Prize in 2016 and the Wegner Award in 2020. Rasmus Fenhann is represented by Galerie Maria Wettergren.
