Jo Luping Design

Designer - Wellington

Jo Luping Design produces art pieces such as ceramics and jewellery that possess unique, endearing characteristics. They are dramatic and intelligent and reflect the natural environment that we live in. Inspiration is drawn from the land and sea. Says Jo "I believe it is important to collaborate with like minded people and so have surrounded myself with a team who have a passion for beautiful and well crafted objects of art. We have a complete distaste for the throwaway object and the inbuilt obsolescent mind set. We make pieces that will survive the test of time, pieces that you can pass on to your children, collectible works of art. We believe that great design is timeless. Like great music, it transcends location and cultural boundaries. Great design defies categorisation but is accessible and engaging."
