More about Sabine Marcelis
Sabine Marcelis was born and raised in New Zealand, and after graduating from the Eindhoven Academy of Design, she stayed in the Netherlands and established her practice in Rotterdam. There is a particular self-sufficiency in her objects, a pleasant mix between minimalism and whimsy, each of them could stand as a work of art in the space. Her eponymous studio currently maintains a team of designers with whom she works on installations, interiors, furniture, accessories and light. From the very beginning of her professional journey, her favorite materials are resin and glass, because she believes that they best capture similar processes in nature. "I am constantly on a quest to capture the intangible in matter and object," says Sabine Marcelis about her work.
