SARAH EMILIE MÜLLERTZ & LOU CHARRIER

For Ark Kollekt #13, Sarah Emilie Müllertz, founder and Creative Director of KINRADEN, joined forces with Architect Lou Charrier to create a sculptural stone object exclusively for ARK KOLLEKT.

Sarah Emilie Müllertz
An acclaimed design professional.
Having owned a design studio and served as a Partner and Global Head of Design at Henning Larsen Architects, her proficiency is second to none. In 2020, she chose to concentrate her efforts on KINRADEN, a jewellery brand she initiated in 2014 as a part-time passion project.

Sarah's deep-seated love for jewellery, combined with her architectural experience, cultivates her distinctive approach to jewellery design - an amalgamation of architectural and design philosophies. Drawing from both Danish and Japanese design traditions, Sarah crafts jewellery that projects a distinct, explorative aesthetic. Central to Sarah's ethos are sustainability and ethical practices. She navigates the world of fine materials in innovative ways, artfully fusing precious metals. Her mission is to create unique, enduring jewellery designs with a profound respect for both nature and humanity. Through KINRADEN, Sarah presents extraordinary pieces that meld architectural cues, Danish design heritage, and a daring spirit, while staying true to sustainable practices.

Lou Charrier
Architect. Observer. Maker of spaces.
With a strong presence in the early stages of the design process, Lou Charrier brings both structure and sensitivity to concept development and spatial narratives. Her work begins where ideas are still abstract — shaping atmosphere, material language, and interior gestures in close dialogue with the client.

Lou’s practice is defined by a high aesthetic ambition and a quiet, confident intuition. She moves fluently from the conceptual to the detailed, ensuring that even the smallest elements reflect the original intention. Her process is as much about refinement as it is about clarity - a careful threading of form, function, and feeling.
Over the years, she has worked across a range of typologies, always with a consistent approach: thoughtful design, timeless materials, and spaces that invite presence.
