About


Fabienne merges design and art while exploring unexpected interactions. Her work sparks surprise, amazement and creativity.

Fabienne Crans is a product designer specializing in unique interior product design. No two products are the same. She merges design and art while exploring unexpected interactions. Her work sparks surprise, amazement and creativity. From clocks on stilts suitable for various locations in the home, to glassware that transforms into a sculpture by stacking. Inspired by nature, her form language is bold yet soft and calming.

Apart from selling collectible designs, Fabienne also designs for industrial production for design labels. Either by proposal or on commission. She creates designs that combine/interweave both the label’s vision and style with that of her own through exploring the aesthetics, the materials and the production process.

With a masters degree in Industrial Design from the Eindhoven University of Technology, Fabienne has specialized in intuitive product interaction, innovation strategy, materials and circularity. In 2021, she started her studio. Her ambition is to contribute to the world of interior product design in the medium and high-end sector through incorporating circularity elements, like minimizing production waste and using local materials. Her passion is to create joyful designs that are minimalistic statements with inventive interactions.
