Anne Dorthe is a masters graduate from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture and studied for her BA at Aarhus School of Architecture. She has a background in craft and has taken courses in fine woodwork at KTS (Copenhagen Technical College). Her work is based on the study and processing of materials. Whether large or small in scale, she seeks to unfold the inherent qualities and technical potential of materials. Craftsmanship is central to her process and to her material understanding. Her work is developed through an experimental and exploratory approach, grounded in the Danish design tradition. Anne Dorthe Vester founded her own studio with a focus on architecture and design in 2012. She cofounded MBADV with Maria Brunn, where from 2013 until 2022 they collaborated on projects at the intersection of architecture, design and fine art.
