Calen Knauf LIGHTING

Calen Knauf focuses on the minimalist beauty and usage of everyday objects. Approaching industrial design with a refined sensibility, the Canadian designer creates work that conjures a sentiment of understated luxury. His eponymous line of homeware and sculptures displays clean lines and sharp silhouettes devoid of ornamentation. The brand’s Stutter Light, a solid block of unfinished aluminium with intentional raw edges, was featured in a group exhibition at Toronto’s Erin Stump Projects. Smooth ceramic vessels come in various sizes to suit a range of functions and lend an elegance to any centerpiece arrangement. A nod to Scandinavian design, the brand’s collections are thoughtful and simple while subtly quirky and playful. Elevating home goods to the status of objets d’art, Calen Knauf evokes joie de vivre in the quotidian.
