The founder and vision behind Johannes Torpe Studios, Danish designer Johannes Torpe is an unconventional and self-trained creative in every way imaginable. Working in the fields of interior, product, lighting and graphic design, while also producing music and playing the drums, he is not one to conform to established boundaries. He simply calls himself a design activist, dedicated to telling compelling and authentic stories through creativity and design.
As creative director of the studio, he infuses the team with his energy, intuitive approach and comprehensive experience from the many aspects of the design and creative industries he has worked in. He channels his unorthodox approach into building the best team in his studio and creating an environment where the designers and projects can grow to reach their full potential.
Johannes Torpe additionally conducts creative consultancy work for brands. Most recently he worked with renowned high-end consumer electronics brand Bang & Olufsen as their Group Creative Director from 2011 to 2015.
