Self Mining Chair by Jan Waterston

Jan Waterston established his studio in 2017, with the goal to explore the junction between art, craft, and design. Driven by forms ability to disrupt a space, objects are realised through traditional exploration of material, and grounded through conceptual meaning.

Working independently from his UK based studio, Jan offers a range of speculative works, commission pieces, and furniture collections, all exclusively made to order. Speculative works explore abstract ideas and are realised through the deep practical study of both material and process, with limited editions being crafted to order. Often inspired by these speculative pieces, commissioned works are developed to compliment a client’s distinct vision. Whilst the pieces developed as part of the concept collections explore one central theme and are grounded in functionality.
