Christina Overby

"In my work I integrate form, function, aesthetics and materiality and balance attention to the conceptual story in my projects with an instinctive focus on perfection in the detail."

Christina Overby Studio is a multidisciplinary design studio, working with furniture, product and spatial design as well as styling, events and art projects.

With an investigative and experimental process, examining materials, details, shapes and expressions, I create sensuous, aesthetic and interesting stories, that invite people into an intriguing and inspiring universe.
