about
Serhiy and Anna Baiersdorf, young Ukrainian designers, whose work exudes playfulness, and are characterised by naive yet captivating forms and embraces openness to the world
The designers exhibit a distinctive style characterised by a harmonious blend of texture, form, and craftsmanship. Their deliberate choice of materials and techniques imbues each creation with a soul, allowing it to breathe life.
“With every creation, we embark on a journey of reimagination. Even when an object has already worn countless faces, we breathe fresh life into it. We alter its meanings, experiment with materials, and shift our approach. In doing so, the designer crafts a novel perspective—one that has the power to transform the world”
Metal, occupying a special place in their work, exemplifies this duality: possessing both formidable strength and the capacity for fluidity and softness. In addition to metal, the designers also employ glass in their artistic endeavours
In their works Serhiy and Anna collaborate closely with craftsmen and artisans. Being crafted by glassblowers, every piece in the IKEBIA collection is one-of-a-kind, whilst shelves in the LIQUID QUIET collection are handmade by metal artisans. Their designs blend lightness, playfulnessб naive, clean lines, and craftsmanship, resulting in unique objects.
