SHY Design Studio
Overview
SHY Design Studio is a Glasgow based practice, founded by Peter Bingham, frequently working alongside his long term creative partner Sofia Olander. The studio works from both a design and artistic perspective, using a narrative driven process to explore their own interpretations of traditional archetypes.
Skilled in working across a range of materials they consider noble, natural, and sustainable whilst exploring production skills both time honoured and modern. Material and process are intrinsic to the stories they tell, these narratives are often rooted in design and craft-based histories, resultantly there is a history of furniture, craft and material laced throughout their pieces.
SHY have exhibited widely in Europe including at Collect, Future Heritage, Dutch Design Week and Salone del Mobile.
