Simon Klenell glass how: Exhale – The composition of the exhalationSimon Klenell, born in 1985, describes himself as both a designer and craftsman. His way of working is driven by the material, and he works almost exclusively with glass. It is also in the glass that he finds his greatest inspiration and curiosity. Although to some extent Simon works traditionally with sketches and drawings, a large part of his professional identity is based on the fact that he also blows and grinds glass himself, which he sees as his main tool in his design.Curiosity and finding the potential of glass are major driving forces in Simon's work. He is driven by learning more about how he can use glass's history of form, manufacturing techniques and physical properties to explore the material's potential. This is also how he explores what he can convey with the help of the glass.
