Sebastian Brajkovic

About Me

Born in Amsterdam in 1975 to a Dutch-Indonesian mother and a Croatian-Italian father, Brajkovic studied cabinet-making at the Meubelvakschool Amsterdam before enrolling at the Eindhoven Design Academy. He made his first Lathe chair for his final student show, 2006, and then exhibited it at Salon Milan, attracting considerable attention. Brajkovic first showed with Carpenters Workshop in 2008 and has since made five Lathe series. He created his first piece for David Gill, Banquette, in 2018, and is now represented by the gallery. Brajkovic lives and works in Amsterdam.
