Kåre Frandsen — Co-founder & Industrial Designer, Better Objects
Kåre trained as a cabinet maker before studying furniture design at Danmarks Designskole. He co-founded Better Objects and leads industrial design and production — approaching every product as a maker first, obsessing over material behaviour and the feel of something in your hand.
His design philosophy: great objects provoke an emotion, then disappear into daily life. This is the standard he applies when specifying materials for LastSwab, LastRound, and LastTissue — every decision traced back to how the object performs in real daily use over thousands of repetitions.
Kåre writes about the materials and making decisions behind Better Objects products — from why the tip of LastSwab uses TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) to how LastRound's fabric performs after 200 washes.
