The founder and visionary behind Johannes Torpe Studios, Danish designer Johannes Torpe is an unconventional creative in every way imaginable. A self-trained architect, industrial designer, lighting designer, graphic artist and music producer, he doesn’t conform to established boundaries and simply calls himself a design activist.

Guided by the believe that we do our best work when we pursue things that move us, his latest furniture design is a translation of human emotions into a contemporary furniture collection. Like the way the best love songs has been written pursuing his unrestrained and intuitive approach to design and life in general, in the “Heartbreaker” and “Precious” collections, he turned the joy of love and the pain of a heartbreak into a composition of sophisticated shapes and materials.

As a long time Creative Director of Bang & Olufsen, Johannes has helped world wide brands like Nike and latest the Canadian bike maker Argon 18. Also, he has redefined Hospitality with the award winning Red Mountain Resort project in Iceland and most recently has been creating the Danish trains of the future. He is strengthening brands with thought provoking solutions that crosses the fields of interior design, branding, industrial design and architecture.

Staying true to his credo, “To go beyond and further“ he will keep pushing the boundaries of creativity and design like no one else.
