Kunstverksted is a multi-discipline collaboration of enthusiastic craftspeople, who have dedicated themselves to the purpose of further developing and contributing to their craft.

Kunstverksted is lead by Lara Reisigl Domeneghetti, who has a broad education spanning 12 years within the fine arts field. She began her journey as a decorative painter and sculptural woodcarver, in Italy in 2007. Since then, she has developed her own interest in historical and ornamental sculpture while travelling, learning and teaching around Europe. In 2022 Lara moved to the beautiful Art Nouveau town of Ålesund on the west coast of Norway, began her own business starting with two apprentices and attracting like minded collaborators.

Co-owner Max Ferdinand Kipperberg is a forward-thinking entrepreneur with a background in international business education from NTNU.
With proficiency in sales, management, and marketing, Max has skillfully directed projects within the different industries, focusing on cutting-edge technology and communication solutions.

One of our fundamental beliefs is that it is vital for craftspeople and artists to communicate and interact in a creative environment by networking and building a multi discipline community.

We are passionate about reviving traditional crafts and showing the importance of beauty in the everyday life.

We also offer courses and lectures in the respective crafts in our workshop spaces.
