Jan Lunde Knudsen was one of Norways most internationally oriented furniture designers of the 1960s. For most of the 50s, he lived in the United States. Back in Norway in the early 60s, he worked for a period designing furniture for Sørlie møbler. The model Rondo was produced in 1961. It was an elegant stack chair which came in wood or steel with leather or fabric. The same theme, a curved back, was used by Lunde Knudsen for Tele, designed for Sørlie møbler around 1963.

The Bambi Chair, today produced by the Norwegian design company Fjordfiesta, is a striking piece of furniture that embodies the elegance and minimalism of Scandinavian design. Designed by Rudi Wulff, the chair features clean lines and a graceful, organic form reminiscent of its namesake. Crafted from high-quality materials, it combines functionality with a visually appealing aesthetic, making it suitable for both contemporary and classic interiors. The Bambi Chair is known for its comfortable seating experience and durable construction, reflecting Fjordfiesta's commitment to craftsmanship and sustainable design practices.

フィヨルドフィエスタ社が製造するバンビチェアは、北欧デザインの優雅さとミニマリズムを体現する印象的な家具です。ルディ・ウルフによってデザインされたこのチェアは、シンプルなラインと名前にちなんだ優雅で有機的な形状が特徴です。高品質な素材から作られ、機能性と視覚的な美しさを兼ね備えており、現代的なインテリアにもクラシックなインテリアにも適しています。バンビチェアは、快適な座り心地と耐久性のある構造で知られ、フィヨルドフィエスタの職人技と持続可能なデザインへのこだわりを反映しています。

Fjordfiesta was founded in 2001 with the ambition to reconnect with Scandinavian design heritage and to focus on Norwegian design aesthetics. The company’s factory, however, is much older. Located in a deep valley by the Dokka River in the heart of Norway, it has been producing quality furniture for the past 65 years.


Fjordfiesta’s intention is to create furniture that will last for generations to come. Fjordfiesta’s initial project was to reintroduce the timeless Scandia range of chairs that had been designed by Hans Brattrud in the 1950s. The chairs, which had only been available through vintage dealers since the mid ‘70s, were slightly trimmed by the designer and put into production again in 2001. The Scandia series is eco-labelled by the ‘Swan’, the official Nordic eco-label. All materials are chosen with great consideration, and by using a stainless steel base, water-base lacquer and wood from certified forestry, the Scandia series is an environmentally conscious choice.

In 1960 Torbjørn Afdal designed the multi purpose bench Krobo. It became an instant classic in Norway because of its unique flexibility and multitude of possible uses. The bench was re-launched by Fjordfiesta in cooperation with Utopia Retro Modern in 2014. Torbjørn Afdal, who started working as a designer at Bruksbo Tegnekontor in 1946, was one of the most prolific post-war Norwegian designers.

Bench in laminated lacquered oak, walnut or fully coloured black oak. Base in solid wood. Available in two heights and three lengths.

Designed by Andreas Engesvik, Oslo, the wooden chair Vang is built and constructed around a sturdy framework. The uprights that form the backrest and the way they are connected to the seat are directly inspired by Alf Sture’s Windsor chairs, designed for Tonning in the 1960s. The stick-back-theme is reworked to fit a modern context. The steam-bent top-piece, which has been used by a number of designers through the years, is today recognised as a classic Scandinavian design element. The technique is traditional: joint fittings and glue. The Vang chair was launched at the Norwegian exhibition during the London Design Festival in September 2012.

Since 1946, Tonning & Stryn has made furniture using traditional handcrafting methods in combination with modern machine techniques, resulting in pieces that are both of the moment and guaranteed to grow old with dignity. Today, Tonning & Stryn produces the iconic furniture of its late long-standing collaborator Alf Sture, together with new designs inspired by the quality, craftsmanship and traditions for which the furniture village of Stryn has been known for generations.

Built and constructed around a sturdy framework, Andreas Engesvik’s Vang chair is a typical example of this approach. The uprights that form the backrest and the way in which they are connected to the seat are directly inspired by Alf Sture’s Windsor chairs, designed for Tonning in the 1960s. The technique is traditional, the expression honest, and the simple design true to its materials – making Vang both a tribute to a classic and a paragon of contemporary Norwegian furniture design.

Grid is a classic design with a modern expression, which both protects your home and makes it look better. For the first time in collaboration with the award-winning Norwegian designer Hallgeir Homstvedt: Grid takes as its starting point in how a well-known and beloved everyday object can constantly be rediscovered with the help of new materials and patterns.

Designed with real homes in mind, Grid is available in two practical sizes and three color combinations: Matcha Lemon, Lime Candycane and Chocolate Strawberry.

“Each of the door mats has a muted check pattern consisting of two soft tones and a more expressive accent color – in many ways like flowers in a green meadow. Thereby they complement your decor instead of attracting attention..”

By combining innovative Scandinavian design with high-quality materials, Heymat produces functional and good looking indoor and outdoor mats and rugs. Heymat works with leading contemporary designers to ensure that their growing collection of rugs not only look great, they're also good for the environment. Heymat has sustainable production, ships worldwide and aims to make everyday life easier.


Heymat’s story started in the harsh and beautiful Northern Norway, surrounded by fjords and mountains — and lots of stormy weather. There the married couple Sonja Djønne and Thoralf Lian, ran a small family business with special expertise in washing and renting out industrial mats. They wanted to introduce a mat that was both functional and good looking.

The Grorud chair was designed in 1958 by Hans Bratterud as the perfect stacking chair for kitchens and cafeterias. Solid, simple design with veneer seat in three designs.

The Grorud chair comes in 3 different designs: Oak, black or walnut.

Birdy is a table, wall and floor lamp series designed in 1952, in a modernist style. The lamp series was produced and sold by the Norwegian electricity company Sønnico (Oslo) for many years. In 1954 the table lamp, then known as “s-30016” was awarded the highly esteemed Golden Medal at the Milan Triennale.

In 2013 Northern decided to re-launch this design classic, taking care to preserve the original shape and highly functional features that at first made it such a well–loved light. The lamp series is available in white, grey or black colour with steel finish and black coloured shade with black or brass metal finish.

Birdy is also available as a floor lamp and wall lamp with short or long arm.

The Mikkel series was launched at ICFF in New York in 2015, and was voted best textile at the ICFF Editors Awards. The motifs combine a geometric pattern inspired by the Bauhaus movement and Norwegian weaving traditions with modern use of colour. The collection consists of large blankets, half-sized blankets, baby blankets, cushions and seating mats.

While working with the blankets, Melvær combined her two disciplines of industrial design and graphic design. The Norwegian manufacturer Røros Tweed made the prototypes. A carefully sorted blend of the finest Norwegian wool is carded, spun, twisted, dyed, woven and finished at their factories in Norway.

Norwegian wool, 100% Norwegian production and close collaboration with Scandinavia's leading designers and textile artists have made blankets from Røros Tweed one of the most well-reputed all-Norwegian quality products. The design is inspired by the aesthetic and cultural heritage of Røros - and the fascinating high mountain scenery.

Dahl’s seamless curves and crisp, white surfaces may seem completely contemporary, but this classic design has a long and illustrious past. Dahl was originally created in 1956 and installed in the newly-renovated Norwegian Parliament building two years later. The light was reintroduced by Northern in 2016, following the relaunch of Birger Dahl’s classic Dokka and Birdy designs. For decades, Dahl’s smooth shape and soft contours have blended effortlessly into modern interiors and created a focal point that illuminates the room.

Dokka is a small light with a big history. Designed in 1954, it was the first lamp from Norway to receive a Golden Medal award at the prestigious Triennale di Milano. Acclaimed for its smooth contours, precise proportions and sleek handling of materials, Dokka had the potential to become a design classic from day one. It became one of the best-selling pendant lamps ever produced in Norway, then disappeared when the previous manufacturer discontinued their lighting range.


In 2007, Northern re-launched Dokka, taking care to preserve the features that made it a design classic. Today, the lamp is expertly crafted in steel or brass, and made to last. The light is available in a range of colours: black, dark grey, white, light yellow, rust red, dark green, warm beige, brushed steel and brushed brass. An icon of its time, Dokka is uniquely contemporary, and is destined to become a future antique.
