Simo Lahtinen (b. 1989) is a Helsinki-based industrial designer whose work moves between furniture, lighting, and objects. He approaches design through the tension between sculptural form and everyday function — looking for the point where the two become the same thing, rather than a compromise between them.

Lahtinen has worked across architecture, urban infrastructure, and user-centered design — experience that shapes both his technical range and his understanding of how objects exist in use, not just in appearance.

He works independently, developing his own projects alongside collaborations, and has shown his work internationally.
