STUDIO HENRY WILSON

Henry Wilson is a designer based in Sydney, Australia. He studied at the Australian National University School of Art in Canberra, graduating with first class honours in visual arts, specialising in woodwork. During his time at ANU he went on exchange to Rhode Island School of Design. He then moved to Europe to do his Masters at the Design Academy Eindhoven before returning to Sydney to set up his own studio in 2012. Henry’s work combines a rational, democratic utility with an element of sculptural expression. ”I am interested in the awkward beauty that comes from something made by hand. I like to explore how imperfection can be introduced into an industrial process, to make something at scale that retains a sense of individual charm”
