About
Hi! I’m Naja Lynge. I create wearable objects where architectural thinking meets my Greenlandic design heritage.
I trained as an architect at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen and have worked with form, material, colour and spatial thinking for decades. I read the world through form, rhythm, proportion, scale and context — and that is where the objects begin. I work from Charlottenlund, just north of Copenhagen.
I grew up mainly in Denmark, with Greenlandic culture close around me: lots of family, Greenlandic food in the freezer — mattak, dried fish, seal and reindeer — and a lot of laughter.
That is where the work begins: in inherited forms, in things made by hand, in patterns I can study, redraw and translate into new objects. Each edition starts in Greenlandic visual heritage and becomes contemporary form, made in small editions.
The graphic language is where I test mixed-media — hand drawing, phone photography. The rest of the process stays analog: research, sketching, testing, adjusting, starting over — until everything feels right.
