About the exhibition

Norwegian Presence distils the innovative best of the Norway’s design, craft and high-quality manufacture to share the story of the country’s creative scene today. 

Curated with quality and sustainability at the forefront, the 2018 exhibition explores how the Norwegian concept of fellesskap (community, fellowship and collaboration) shapes the country’s modern creative culture and drives makers and manufacturers alike.

A collaboration between Design and Architecture Norway (DOGA), Klubben (the Norwegian designers’ union) and Norwegian Crafts, the project is supported by The Royal Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Innovation Norway and The Federation of Norwegian Industries.

Exhibition design: Klubben / Silje Nesdal, Sverre Uhnger and Bjørn van den Berg; styling: Kirsten Visdal; photography: Lasse Fløde & Torjus Berglid; graphic design: Bielke&Yang.
