Studio Job have undoubtedly become one of the design and art world’s most notorious duos.  Founded over 15 years ago by Nynke Tynagel and Job Smeets, both Design Academy Eindhoven Graduates, Studio Job have found worldwide acclamation with exhibitions in numerous shows, and galleries.

Their aesthetic is entirely unique, as their work has been considered to redefine the concept of modern day applied arts. Most of their work is limited to very few pieces, as the craftsmanship and expressiveness of each creation goes beyond the ordinary.

“Unlike most, we are probably not coming from Modernism. Studio Job’s contribution is that we have rediscovered a lost path. Consciously and carefully, we are positioning decorative arts in the twenty-first century. Is that design? Whatever. Is that art? Whatever, really.” – Job Smeets
