Established in 2007, studio Jens Praet is a design studio based in Panzano in Chianti, a small town near Firenze in Italy, run by belgian designer Jens Praet.
Jens studied Industrial Design in Firenze and attended the Master classes at the renowned Design Academy in Eindhoven under Droog Design's co-founder Gijs Bakker.

Studio Jens Praet works from a conceptual angle on topics of contemporary culture, out of own initiative and on assignment.
The studio has an intensive approach towards traditional handcrafting in combination with avant-garde techniques. Jens has a strong passion for everyday objects, honest materials, finding inspiration in unexpected details and daily issues which often become the starting point in developing a new concept.

Studio Jens Praet's work has been exhibited at several interesting international locations and has been featured in many major design publications and newspaper world-wide.

Nowadays, besides new self-assigned projects, the studio is working on new pieces for Industry Gallery (Washington DC), on a new limited edition piece for PlusDesign Gallery (Milano), on its first interior project commissioned by a private client, and recently started a new collaboration with renowned furniture brand Poltronova and with one of italian's leading lighting brands, Cassina-Nemo.
