<strong>Jesse Visser Designprojects specializes in furniture and lighting objects that engage all the senses. Our desire to innovate production techniques and love for detailing, result in striking statement pieces that are as sober as they are poetic.</strong>

Jesse Visser Designprojects was founded by Jesse Visser in 2000. After finishing his studies at the Utrecht School of Product Design and the Piet Zwart Institute, Visser focused on creating furniture and lighting objects that go beyond the predictable. Up to this day, his approach is defined by research, craftsmanship and curiosity, leading to outspoken designs that are appreciated by clients such as galleries and architects, business and the industry alike.

<strong>Traditional materials, new meanings</strong>

The studio aims to reinvent and modify conventional combinations of materials and techniques, climaxing into unexpected production processes. Whether it’s aluminum, stainless steel, wood or stone: by reusing familiar materials in a different way, they can suddenly surprise us with a fresh perspective. This practice has resulted in various iconic and commercially successful objects, such as the origami-inspired <em><strong>Alumni-</strong></em><em><strong>series</strong></em> of chairs or the dynamic <strong><em>Harold</em></strong><strong><em> cabinet</em></strong>. Here, thin, expanded metal layers are overlayed, creating an intriguing moiré-effect.

<strong>Detailing and durability</strong>

Although strong, autonomous ideas and concepts lie at the heart of Jesse Visser Designprojects, the studio believes in the importance of collaborations. By cooperating with other industry professionals, be it designers, engineers or architects, we can ensure the highest quality. This not only brings out the beauty of our designs – as technical detailing and material structure become all the more pronounced -, but also increases their durability. This way, they can be enjoyed for many years to come.
