Theresa Rand

Born in 1982, Theresa Rand first studied architecture in Germany before moving to Denmark. Inspired by classic Scandinavian design and crafts, she has made Copenhagen her second home and continues to enrich the furniture industry with her own straightforward style. Following her graduation from the Royal Danish Academy of Arts, Rand applied to numerous Danish design firms, including Norm Architects, who passed her portfolio on to furniture manufacturers Menu; who were impressed by what they saw and began a cooperation with Theresa Rand, with her industrial design chic Turning Table starting the relationship, one which continues successfully to this day. In 2017 Theresa Rand was nominated Designer of the Year by the Design Awards. Her designs for furniture and home accessories live from simple beauty and sophisticated functionality; the balance between lightness and stability, classic elegance and modernity always gives her work that certain something. In her Échasse series, which Menu launched in 2019 Theresa Rand combines precisely those elements and clean lines that are so typical of Scandinavian furniture design.
