Layer Projects is the studio of Arthur Nikolaj Ipsen.

Founded from a background in industrial design and a long-standing interest in problem-solving, the studio explores lighting as both object and system.

The practice creates made-to-order and limited-edition lighting for contemporary spaces — objects intended to feel personal, adaptable, and long-lasting.

Designs evolve over time, responding to new ideas, materials, and ways of living, while remaining functional and considered in their production.

Each piece is developed through curiosity rather than trends. Digital tools are treated as craft — used not to remove character, but to shape it with precision. Forms are minimal and sculptural, with every surface and detail serving a purpose.

Layer Projects is not a finished collection, but an ongoing body of work.
Built, tested, and refined — one layer at a time.
