“We think the beauty of a material transformation should always provoke a new sense of admiration with respect to the known”– Lennart Lauren. “Paperthin Architecture” series of architectural objects, that should be relevant in terms of daily use, enabled us to rediscover the value of the actual material and its related process. The objects breathe the essence of the classic tin can whilst illuminating the characteristics of a paper-thin material.

Lennart Lauren is a design studio founded by the Leerdam Brothers and based in the city of Deventer (Netherlands). Their work could be defined as an interaction between industrial production methods and experimental material constructions. The studio’s design signature creations push the boundaries of the existing, resulting in clever detailing with a clear function. The studio is mainly focused on self-initiated product design and commissioned projects.
