Sina Sohrab

Sina Sohrab is an industrial designer based in Madrid, Spain. His office engages in furniture, product, and exhibition design, as well as design- oriented research projects and curation.

The multidisciplinary nature of the practice allows for a nuanced, rigorous, and thoughtful approach; concerned with cultural and behavioral narratives, the fingerprints that are left through time and adaptation, as a means to define future ways of living. Works are realized through both independent initiatives and collaborations with leading companies and institutions. Recent projects include a conceptual soft seating system for Kvadrat (Living Room, 2020); a wooden bench designed for the Korshagehus in Denmark (Korshage Bench, 2024); an exhibition in the form of a market for the Museo Nacional de Artes Decorativas in Madrid (Exposición de Bienes, 2022); and surveys of the sociopolitical histories behind the cable tie, flatpack furniture joints, and plastic welding techniques for the publication U-JOINTS – A Taxonomy of Connections (SYNC-SYNC Editions, 2022) edited by Andrea Caputo and Anniina Koivu.

Sohrab’s work has been internationally recognized and exhibited, most recently at Kvadrat’s headquarters in Ebeltoft, Denmark and the Noguchi Museum in New York City. He has been the recipient of several design awards, including a Red Dot 'Best of the Best' designation and a Wallpaper* Design Award. In 2024, he was one of 100 designers selected by Phaidon for Designed for Life: The World’s Best Product Designers.
