Detroit-based designer, craftsman & artist Jason Kehdi began his studies on the pre-engineering track and was formally trained in 2D and 3D design and drafting before switching his direction to transportation design and then finally settling in Studio Furniture. His works focuses on using materials from industry along with fall off and recycled scrap sourced from the city’s manufacturing complex, giving a new life to this source of raw material. With his work he strives to create furniture and objects that inspire the feeling of the sublime that landscapes and architecture often stir. In the summer of 2017, he was the resident artist at the Antiochian Village in western Pennsylvania. Kehdi received his B.F.A. from the College for Creative Studies in Studio Furniture in 2020. In 2019 he began working for GANAS MFG in Detroit, where he was trained as a craftsman and then design engineer finally leaving in 2022 to found the Argonaut Studio LLC. Kehdi has been involved in several art exhibitions across the city, one of the latest being the DTree project with the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History. In early 2024 he accepted a fellowship with Newlab Detroit.
