6 New ideas in design

It´s been twelve years in the making. This has always been our desired destination. Now, with the right amount of insight and experience the time for an expansion is just right. Ironically enough, the expansion comes with a shorter name – Northern. Despite only keeping the first part of our previous name, we have no intention of eliminating the content of our last, as we´re bringing the best from our past into an exciting new future. With Morten and Jonas as creative directors by my side, a new lifestyle concept has been shaped. Although our new name might indeed be shorter, the repertoire...

Picture the North. Rugged landscapes and clear blue waters, dramatic horizons reflected in breath-taking fjords. A place filled with talent and imagination, always ready to inspire new ideas in design. It’s where creative expression meets traditional craft, and where pale beauty is coupled with rough-cut contrasts. Inspirations such as these are sparking new directions for design. This is what Northern was established to pioneer. The Northern brand was born in the studios of Northern Lighting, where a team of creatives has been illuminating lives for the past twelve years. We combine beauty...

The sofa is made with layers of cushioning materials that maximise comfort, combined with generous proportions that provide plenty of room for relaxing.

Design by Kyla McCallum This spectacular lighting design is structured from crisp folds that bring Japanese origami to mind. The shade is made from Kvadrat wool fabric treated with a lamination process and supported by an inner structure that holds its shape. The wool has acoustic properties that dampen ambient sound and absorb noise. From its position below the shade, the bulb illuminates the folded patterns in the fabric as it casts light over the space below. As the shade is tilted to one side, it deflects light in the opposite direction, creating a simple way of directing light or...

Design by Kyla McCallum Tactile accessories make a difference to the interior, filling it with colours, textures and soft surfaces. To that list, add design details, and you’ll see what a difference the Case cushion series can make. The cushions are quilted on one side to create a rich texture, making them satisfying to touch, hold and squeeze. Origami-like folds, together with lateral lines of stiches, form two geometric patterns and a chevron motif. Made from wool, the cushions are made with a removable cover that is easy to care for and maintain. The cushions are available in green, pink...

Design by Farg & Blanche With a name like Loud, you’d expect this elegant cabinet to scream for attention, but it barely even whispers. Loud is a cool bystander, waiting to be noticed. Although stylish and suave, Loud is an expression of simplicity that takes minimalism to a higher level. The cabinet is designed without embellishments and crafted with smooth contours. Its polished metal surfaces look almost seamless in appearance. The gleaming body is complemented by a tabletop crafted in smoked oak, with oak legs accented by metal shoes capping each foot. Loud adds a sense of understated...
