Morten & Jonas

Morten and Jonas are a Norwegian design duo who work in furniture design and interior architecture. They met while studying at the Bergen Academy of Art and Design and, after receiving their master's degrees, established their own studio in 2011. Since 2016 they have also worked with Norwegian lifestyle brand Northern, where they have released several new lighting solutions. They are now based just outside of Oslo in their studio, Morten&Jonas.

The duo is not only known for their cutting-edge designs, but also for the humour and wit that can often be found within them. Their pieces showcase their imagination, and they work alongside technicians and manufacturers to challenge rigid ideas around the process and products within their industry. They have had their work exhibited around the world in cities including New York, Milan, London, and Seol.

“We often have problems coming up with ideas – one of them being that we have too many! The start is usually simple, drawing with pen and paper – ideas that are not easy to understand by everyone, but this misunderstanding often creates new and more exciting shapes and ideas.” - Jonas Norheim.
