Jenkins & Uhnger ble establert i 2015 av Thomas Jenkins (UK) og Sverre Uhnger (NO). Det modulbaserte bordet “Presence” (As Long As You Like) var vårt første produkt og vi har siden 2015 skapt møbler, produkter og rom i tett samarbeid med våre kunder.
“Through a collaborative process of observation, prototyping and dialogue we aim to create products with identity and content.”
“Working within established categories we challenge archetypes and constraints by bringing a new angle on refinement, function, emotion or technology.”
