KnaST is a small design and interior shop in the heart of Nørrebro. We have been around since 2015, when Anders and Carla first opened the doors to their wonderful universe of handmade furniture and ceramic art.

Today we are a collection of designers and craftsmen who all share the desire to create unique products. Common to all of us is our interest in materials, creativity and craftsmanship translated into a modern Nordic design.

In KNaST everything is locally produced and the products are therefore most often produced in smaller quantities.



**Who are we?**

***The Workshop Made by Anders***

Anders is a furniture designer and cabinetmaker. His series of dining and coffee tables are characterized by materials adapted to the expressions and needs of the time.

Anders has loved crafts for as long as he can remember, and today he helps people find, or rediscover, the joy of working with wood through the cosy cutting courses held regularly at Nørrebro.



***Carla Caos***

The artist behind the quirky universe Carlas Caos is Carla Jørsum. She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts Design School, Bornholm in 2010.

Carlas Caos offers an adventurous universe with both utility items and decorative hand-modeled ceramic objects. In addition to her charateristic trees and blades of grass in all kinds of colors, Carla also makes a beautiful stoneware frame in delicate shades as well as hanging flower pots with wings. The ceramics from Carlas Caos are all produced in the small workshop in the back room of the store.



***Helena Frank Studio***

Helena Frank is a Swedish illustrator and print designer, based in Copenhagen. She has studied at Konstfack in Sweden, and Filmskolen in Denmark.

In 2015 she started the 'Helena Frank Studio' where she creates handmade art using traditional pencil and watercolour technique. The penchant for human behavior and detail is key to her work. She has always been interested in discreet observation of our world.



***Retrograde lamps***

Retrograde Lamps is composed by Greg Stone, originally from Canada. From his workshop in Nørrebro, he builds his lamps, which are handmade from top to bottom. The screens too!

He uses wood residues from other local wood production so that his products are as sustainable as possible.
