Takagi & Homstvedt
Takagi & Homstvedt gained an international reputation with their designs for lamps, furniture and home accessories. Hallgeir Homstvedt and Jonah Takagi first met at the famous Salone Satellite 2011 Milan furniture fair where they recognized their shared passion for cycling, good beer and design. Although Homstvedt and Takagi are based in completely different regions of the world, they decided to partner up together and use precisely this divergent symbiosis of ideas and influences to collaborate with different brands in Europe and America.
After graduating as an industrial designer in Australia, the Norwegian Hallgeir Homstvedt returned to Oslo. Initially working for the highly esteemed Studio Norway Says, who cooperate with, amongst others, the label Muuto, before establishing his own design studio, Homstvedt. In addition to cooperations with numerous well-known Norwegian and international manufacturers Hallgeir has exhibited in London, Tokyo, Oslo, New York and Milan.
Jonah Takagi studied furniture design at the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence. Following his graduation in 2002 he initially went on the road as a touring musician before dedicating himself entirely to design with his own studio from 2010, in turn working for well-known representatives of the design industry such as Kvadrat.
Takagi & Homstvedt prefer to focus their attention on the entire range of product design, because that is where the magic of the new lies, the perspective is extremely multifaceted and the eye always remains open to working with new materials and techniques. Looking at the designs by Homstvedt & Takagi, the beauty of the designs lies in the simplicity of the shapes and the clever combination of different materials - clear characteristics of Scandinavian design.
In their first jointly licensed product, the Half and Half pendant light, the use of archetypal shapes is immediately apparent. The structured lines of the pleated pattern are also part of the essence of the designer duo Homstvedt & Takagi, and can be seen, for example, in the Lamella lighting series created in cooperation with the Danish manufacturer Le Klint.
