Thomas Pedersen

Thomas Pedersen is a trained architect from Aarhus School of Architecture, and since he qualified in 2002 he has run SPARK by Thomas Pedersen. The design studio strives to create product and furniture designs that combine ergonomics with aesthetics and sustainability, as manifested in designs that combine the Danish love of simplicity and lasting materials with a modern look where nothing is left to chance.  The main source of inspiration is the natural world and anatomical proportions. The result is distinctly organic designs rooted in the Scandinavian design tradition, but which also look to the future.

Over the years, Thomas Pedersen has won several awards for his designs. He is best known for his Stingray chair, which he designed as his Master’s project in Aarhus.
