Daan De Wit, born in 1995, is a Belgian object and furniture designer. In 2018 he graduated in postgraduate furniture design after completing his bachelor's degree in interior design.

Before opening his own studio in 2019, he gained experience in various architecture and design studios, such as ‘Junya Ishigami+associates’ in Tokyo. In his studio he focuses on small collections of functional objects derived from a cross-pollinated mix of techniques and materials.

Stratum Series

It all started in 2017, when I developed a technique that enabled me to convert a small amount of veneer into hollow, conical objects. A technique that requires little material and produces even less waste.

By lasercutting or water jetting sheet material into concentric layers and assembling them by hand, I obtain organically shaped objects which are handmade in my studio. They are produced in small scale and mostly on demand.
