John and Wonhee Arndt of Studio Gorm
Designers, Educators
John and Wonhee Arndt of Studio Gorm (Eugene, OR) come to design from backgrounds in sculpture and craft. Their methods are strongly rooted in physical making from traditional craft processes to digital fabrication, where objects evolve out of an experimental constructive approach to design resulting in products that are simple, practical, and thoughtfully made. Both John and Wonhee are Professors and founding members of the Product Design Department at the University of Oregon where their research focuses on studying the past and speculating about the future in order to design useful objects for today.
