About the Studio
A Landskrona studio blending hand engraving, electro-etching, and digital design into purposeful metalwork—shaped by curiosity, discipline, and the refusal to choose just one lineage.
Ateljé Vagabond operates from Landskrona, Sweden.
We began exploring metalwork as a way to combine curiosity, engineering thinking, and a love for physical craft. What started as small restoration experiments grew into a practice where digital design, chemistry, AI tools, and traditional hand techniques meet. Over time, this became a studio dedicated to exploring how old and modern methods can shape meaningful objects.
Not Your Typical Studio
You might find Arduino boards next to antique gravers. We write code, etch circuit boards, and hand-finish titanium. It is organized chaos with purpose.
Our Manifesto: "STANCE"
Sustainability
What we build must matter and respect the world it enters. We evaluate impact, energy efficiency, repairability, and longevity.
Thoughtfulness
We do not create because we can. We build with intention, restraint, and clarity of purpose.
Augmentation
AI and modern tools expand our capacity to think, learn, and create. Technology is a multiplier, not a replacement for human judgment.
Necessity
A product must serve a real need, without excess or spectacle. Resource use must always be justified.
Craft
Quality is the baseline. Security, durability, engineering clarity, and honest workmanship guide everything we build.
Ethics
We share openly when it benefits the community, and we protect what must remain private. Responsibility defines our boundaries.
