Tom Rossau was born in Odsherred, Denmark, famous for its curvaceous landscape and the light on the north-western coastline, which has attracted artists for centuries. The sculptural qualities of his native soil are part of his DNA and resonate in his design philosophy.

​

Tom’s work is driven by the intriguing relationship between geometry, materials, and natural and artificial light.

​

To him, the essence of a lamp lies in its transformation when switched on; the design must hold its own in natural daylight, but the real magic happens when the shape and material is lit from within.

​

A self-proclaimed light addict, Tom feels compelled to turn on the lights when entering a room, and is ever amazed by how both atmosphere and object are completely altered at the flick of a switch.
