You may know the designer Rasmus Larsson from the Danish TV programs Lord of the manor and Move or renew. Larsson has always been full of creative ideas. As a child, he was allowed to test his ideas in his father's smithy where he welded and worked with wood. He was later employed at a chair factory in Germany before moving to England. Here he managed to get into Camperwell Art & Design School in London.
In the late 1990s, he started the company Design By Us with his mother-in-law and her brother. Today, Larsson owns the company together with Lisette Bernhoft, who also works as a salesperson in the company. In addition, the company consists of an innovative design team that works closely together to create the company's collections. The company has been named one of the top ten most successful design companies in the world and has also been featured in magazines such as Elle Decor and Wallpaper.
In his private life, he is married to home stylist Andrea Larsson, who has also had success on Danish TV in the programs Fra skrot til slot and Vores genbrugshjem. Their home is characterized by the couple's creativity and ability to combine fine shades, beautiful shapes, old and new - naturally with stylish designer lamps from Design By Us.
Rasmus Larsson strives to combine aesthetics and technology while challenging conventional design: "Our philosophy from the start has been that it should be a game - that there should be some humor. We've certainly never been afraid of color. Of course, we also had a period where it was more black, white and gray, because that was the time, but we have never ever let go of our DNA, and our DNA is color."
His beautiful Ballroom range exudes their DNA, which is all about not being afraid of color. The colored glass is blown into a wooden mold, after which the opening is cut clean and painted with either gold or silver. The distinctive gold or silver edge is repeated in the design of the New Wave Optic series, a lamp series he designed in 2017. The idea was to combine three styles of glass lamps and make it as a pendant. The result is a highly decorative lamp that even has a look reminiscent of an eye.
Rasmus Larsson is especially known for his innovative lamps and furniture with a humorous touch, which is often seen in connection with interior design projects in stores and showrooms - including Stella Nova, Mads Nørgaard, Miss Sixty and Bjørn Borg.
