Danish designer Øivind Slaatto holds a master's degree from the Danish School of Design. Before that he studied music at the Royal Academy of Music. His love of music and nature is reflected in his approach to the design process. Although he is best known for the poetic character of his design solutions, he also seeks qualities such as rationality, logic and harmony in his creations.

Øivind Slaatto wants his designs to be seen in a simple and light way, like playing a piece of music. His work covers areas as diverse as audio speakers, cars, furniture and suspensions. But his great passion is designing lighting solutions. His natural affinity for light leads him to constantly improve the way we perceive light and the mood it creates.
