Jonas Klein is a self-taught furniture designer. He has previously participated in Crafts Collection 13 and has exhibited in several venues around the world, including DMY in Berlin in 2009 and 2010 and Blickfang in Vienna, also in 2009 and 2010. In 2011 he took part in TENT during the London Design Week. To Jonas Klein, simplicity and function are the main features in most of his design work. His work involves a mix of hand-drawings, computer drawings, models and prototypes. Jonas Klein finds inspiration in a variety of sources, for example a shape, a silhouette or a component part of an object. For example, a joint connecting two pieces of wood may provide the inspiration for something new that has nothing to do with that particular joint. His design is characterised by simplicity in idiom and colour.
