Jochen Lavéno Mangelsdorff – Studio & Object

Jochen Lavéno Mangelsdorff is a world where form and light intertwine in a poetic dialogue. His work exists at the intersection of design, art, and engineering—where geometry, materials, and light refraction become tools to create objects with an almost dreamlike presence.
Each piece is a carefully explored balance between precision and intuition, where craftsmanship and optical effects merge to transform the viewer’s perception of space. By allowing construction, material, and color to break and reflect off one another, a dynamic movement emerges—a play of shadows, reflections, and transparency that shifts with light and perspective.
The collections are produced on a small scale, with a deep commitment to both sustainability and authenticity. Manufacturing takes place as locally as possible, ensuring that each detail carries a story of experimentation and craftsmanship.
Jochen’s vision is to create design that not only serves a function but also evokes emotion—objects that transform spaces into living compositions of light, form, and movement.
