REM atelier is an art and design studio founded by Remty Elenga and Remco van Halderen based in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. REM atelier specializes in creating handcrafted, limited edition pieces that challenge the conventions of everyday objects, exploring the realms of functionality and decor. Navigating between the fields of art and design, their work blurs the boundaries between practicality and aesthetic expression, challenging viewers to reconsider its roles and presence.

A recurring theme in REM atelier’s work revolves around the contemplation and immersion in materiality, often led by an interest in organic structures and the process of organically shaped objects versus artificial representation. Their practice is often process driven and rooted in material exploration, taking shape across various mediums such as ceramics, wood, photo collage, and resin.

Combining cutting-edge technology with craft techniques, REM atelier strives to fashion distinctive objects with an unmistakable handcrafted essence.
