About Nicolas

Nicolas co-founded LastObject with his sister Isabel and their partner Kåre in Copenhagen in 2019. He studied Furniture Design at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and Economics at Copenhagen Business School — a combination that shapes how he approaches product work: objects should be beautiful, functional, and commercially honest about what they cost the planet to make.

As Chief Design Officer, Nicolas leads product strategy and oversees every product from the first sketch through manufacturing. He works closely with Kåre on industrial design and with Isabel on brand direction. He writes about the environmental data behind everyday disposable objects — their production costs, what they replace, and why the numbers matter.

Nicolas is the sibling half of the Aagaard founding pair. He and Isabel grew up thinking about objects differently — and LastObject is the result.
