Stilleben
The two designers behind Stilleben, Ditte Reckweg and Jelena Schou Nordentoft, are both educated from The Danish Design Academy- Ceramics and Glass in 2002. They have owned the design store and webshop ‘Stilleben’ since 2002, which carries their own design. They also design for companies such as Kæhler, Skagerak, Georg Jensen and Rosendahl.
Stilleben has won the Best Artisan design awards in 2011 -– for their Omaggio collection for Kähler.
“Our design-DNA is simple, feminine, contemporary. We mainly focus on the expression; shapes, material, glazes, colours. The function is important but not a leading role to us.
We are inspired by art, craft, architecture, and travelling to other large cities. Our latest visit to Tokyo was a big inspiration – both regarding the culture in general, but specifically their tradition for distinct, simple and highly skilled craftsmanship.” – Ditte Reckweg and Jelena Schou Nordentoft
