Shelter to Ground Collection
Batten and Kamp’s recent series ‘Shelter to Ground’, sees the couple produce unique
functional objects by carefully combining natural stones and branches with industrial
materials in a process that they refer to by the mantra “as little interference as
possible”. The one of a kind chairs, tables, lights, and flower stands in the series are
elementally simple, yet the process by which they are created is both intellectually and physically laborious.
The creation of each piece begins with couple first finding stones in nature and
studying them in their studio. Accompanying metal and glass components are then
designed in response to the natural shapes of the stone and produced in collaboration with local sifu. This process creates furniture objects where organic and ‘designed’ components find harmony, each piece is unique, as defined by nature and not the will of the designer.
“These are pieces of furniture - to be used - but their primary function is as tools for contemplation. Like scholar’s rocks, or work by Lee Ufan, they are intended to help people think or feel more deeply about relationships – to nature, between different materials, places, landscapes, ideas.”

Batten and Kamp is a creative partnership between interior architect Alexandra Batten and designer or artist Daniel Kamp. The duo creates one of a kind furniture, objects, installations, and interiors with clients and collaborators in Hong Kong, New Zealand and the wider Asia Pacific. Their projects have received accolades around the world, most recently their ‘Shelter to Ground’ collection was published in esteemed cultural publications such as Design Boom and Design Anthology.
“Our work is a pursuit of raw beauty, of poetry in three dimensions. Art and design, creation and curation, product, sculpture, interiors, architecture - all of it - or none of it. Just beauty.”
