ABOUT

Hemmo Honkonen graduated with a Bachelors degree in Furniture Design from Linköping University - Carl Malmsten Furniture Studies in Stockholm 2017 and is currently doing his Master studies at Aalto University in Helsinki. Prior to his design studies he graduated as a Luthier artisan from the Guitar building department at Ikaalinen College of Crafts and Design (IKATA) and has hence a big passion for woodworking and musical instruments. Hemmos works vary from more artistic conceptual projects to more straight forward functional products with wood as the main material in most cases.
