Paper Artist

Passion for craftsmanship and material in collaboration with Amanda Betz

2022 marks the 10-years anniversary of Kristina Dam Studio and our focus on sculptural minimalism. To acclaim our passion for craftsmanship and material, we launch Edo in a new collaboration with the Danish paper artist Amanda Betz. A side table crafted in cardboard and leather by the Danish manufacturer ELVO established in 1923 and known for their exclusive boxes in cardboard. 

The Edo side table is the clever result of a collaboration between Kristina Dam Studio, the Danish paper designer par excellence Amanda Betz, and the renowned box manufacturer, ELVO. Taking its cues from the subtle art of simple living, the Edo side table is a foldable box in cardboard and leather, suited for bedsides, narrow hallways and small spaces.

Kristina Dam, the founder behind Kristina Dam Studio, graduated from The Royal Danish School of Fine Arts, Architecture and Design in Copenhagen. Throughout her studies, she was told that a construction is durable in every material if it is durable in a paper prototype. Here Kristina Dam’s passion and fascination for paper began, and it has been her ambition ever since to do a furniture design in paper or cardboard. This season, Kristina Dam Studio has fulfilled that ambition with the new Edo design.
