A Copenhagen-based practice across architecture, design and craft

Mikkel Nielsen explores how structure, ornament and material can shape objects, lighting and architecture, combining digital fabrication with specialised craft.

Working across scales, each project develops through an ongoing investigation of material, repetition and making. Digital fabrication is used not simply as a means of production, but as a design tool for creating structures, patterns and forms that would be difficult to achieve through conventional methods.

Nielsen graduated from the Royal Danish Academy and has worked internationally across architecture, design and craft. He serves on the board of the Danish Crafts & Design Association.

His work has been exhibited and presented at Designmuseum Danmark, Roskilde Festival and Copenhagen Contemporary, and acquired by the Ny Carlsberg Foundation.
