by PHAT Studio x Carel Woodworks
“Our partnership with Carel has been an insightful look into a culture we
had not previously explored.
Romania’s rich decorative heritage melded with a brutalist intensity seen in architecture across the country, guided us in our attempt to harmonize harsh forms with subtle details, soft appearances with bold structures.” PHAT Studio
Claudia Surrage &
Christian Cowper
PHAT is an award winning British design studio based in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, representing the collaborative work and professional partnership of Claudia Surrage and Christian Cowper. Bold and honest.
Christian and Claudia’s approach to design celebrates materials for what they are, expressing their beauty through form and proportion.
Graduation of Three-Dimensional Design, alongside the study of ceramics built a strong foundation of knowledge on top of an intuitive creative grounding for the duo.
A natural intrigue and sensitivity for form, proportion and material choice, combined with a sense of human and emotional connection, have allowed Claudia and Christian to create beautiful works often with a distilled simplicity.
