Richard Clarkson Studio is a design practice that examines how traditional materials and new technologies can converge, offering perspectives that push the boundaries between art and design. The firm blends methods from both disciplines to guide consultancy, product design, and experience design. It operates as an in-house studio with an evolving range of pieces available for commission or sale, with a presence in Brooklyn, New York, and in New Zealand. The studio serves clients seeking innovative, cross-disciplinary design solutions that fuse artistic inquiry with practical outcomes. Founded in 2013 by Richard Clarkson, who earned a Master’s degree from the School of Visual Arts in New York and a Bachelor of Design Innovation in Industrial Design from Victoria University of Wellington, the practice traces its origins to an experimental product, lighting, and furniture studio.
