John Astbury is a British designer based in Stockholm. He founded his studio in 2014 after completing his studies at Konstfack School of Arts, and has since developed a clear, structured approach to design. His work often draws on archetypal forms, focusing on simplicity and clarity. By reducing objects to their essential elements, Astbury highlights material, structure, and proportion - creating designs that are both purposeful and visually strong.
