Ole Kortzau (OK)

Ole Kortzau (OK) is a Danish designer, architect and visual artist. His design language is easy to recognise. It brings together nature, graphics, colour and decorative compositions.

A colourful design universe

Ole Kortzau’s universe is filled with flowers, leaves, garden spaces, landscapes and graphic forms. The motifs have a playful and colourful character.

Nature is not simply reproduced. It is interpreted through clear lines, strong colours and decorative details. This creates embroideries that feel classic, artistic and modern.

Architecture, textile and form

As a designer, Ole Kortzau has worked across several materials and forms of expression. His background as an architect can be felt in the clear structure of the motifs.

His work with textiles, graphics and applied art is also visible in the embroideries. Here, precision and poetry meet. Fields, forms and lines create structure. Flowers, water, gardens and seasons add life and movement.
