Studio Roderick Vos was founded in 1999 by Roderick Vos and Claire Vos Teeuwen. The studio specialises in lighting, textile, accessories, and furniture design, working with international brands including Fatboy, ITEM Amsterdam, Molinari, and Moooi. For Moooi, they created the Urchina Suspension, an expressive light that echoes the symmetry of sea urchins.
Roderick Vos studied Industrial Design at Design Academy Eindhoven in 1984, then moved to Japan for six months to gain experience as a trainee. In 1990, he and partner, Claire Vos Teeuwen, graduated from the Design Academy and moved to Indonesia to develop their skills in textile production and rattan furniture. Claire Vos Teeuwen studied at Design Academy Eindhoven in 1984. After graduating, she worked as a trainee at Studio Benno Premsela in Amsterdam and Creation Baumann in Switzerland. The designer states that her love of textiles has always been in her blood. Through an innovative approach, she created a new digital design technique that offers infinite possibilities in pattern design.
“With each of our designs we try to strike the perfect balance between artistry and accessibility. Or task is modest; making people happy with beautiful and functional products.” - Studio Roderick Vos
