Jakob Niemann is an Austrian designer and artist based in Vienna and Stockholm. Niemann’s work in art, furniture and interior design is characterised by a material-driven approach with a focus on wood and forestry. He creates objects from natural resources, aiming for a raw aesthetic that reveals the life within the material.
Jakob’s design philosophy moves away from prescriptive solutions towards a meaningful dialogue. He aims to create beautiful objects that evoke a deeper meaning.
