Creature Furniture is an experimental woodworking studio founded by the two of us, Dorottya Magyar, art historian, design manager and Gergő Kiss, architect.

Our professional backgrounds define our relationship to visuality and object making. Compared to the scale and long timeframe of architectural design, or the often hectic and tense pace of organizing an art-related event, the creation of furniture is a transparent and literally tangible process in time and space. We enjoy challenging and creative assignments where we can work with the client to develop technical and formal solutions.

Our studio is located at AQB, so in addition to furniture we also receive a number of fine art commissions. We have also made installations for artists, picture frames and replicas of artworks.

We emphasize the simple, natural expression of organic forms in our work. We experiment with depicting wood, as a living material, as abstract beings.
Our long-term goal is to create unique shapes and to incorporate natural materials other than wood into our designs.

In our spare time we go on many excursions and these walks in nature become more and more immersive: we get lost in the small details of plants, we look at the characteristics, growths and inhabitants of trees with a sharper eye. Our name and logo reflect this organic approach.

Social design is a strong interest of ours. We have organised a building camp with a foundation for socially under-privileged children, working with natural building materials, and we have also hosted a thematic workshop at a summer art camp.
