About us


---------------------------------------
Bau Design is a Danish design studio established in 2016 by Spanish architect Santiago Bautista.
From our small studio in Vesterbro, we are trying to bring a fresh point of view to the New Scandinavian design scene. 

Bau design appears in a climate of extreme consumerism where big brands are inviting the customers to buy new products every season. As a result, the quality of the products is dropping significantly to make them cheaper and less durable, promoting the idea of disposable products.

Our goal is to design, produce and sell beautiful and durable products manufactured under fair labor conditions and market them at a price which aligns with the intrinsic value of the object.

We control the whole process, from concept sketches to packaging. This is the only way to ensure that our products deliver our identity and values.
