A HOUSE FULL OF PRODUCTS Within the ferm LIVING ”house”, you will find products for every room in your home. The range includes wallpaper, textiles, decorative objects, wallstickers, designs for the kitchen, bathroom and office as well as a large collection for kids. The designs come in many different materials: organic cotton, recycled paper, leather, wood, porcelain and metals. Simply put, ferm LIVING favours honest materials that craftsmen have used for millennia – and prefers sustainable and organic alternatives where feasible. The shape of a house is a recurring feature in ferm LIVING designs. The products are made for people’s homes, and the simple house shape is an iconic symbol that just says “home”. That is why the house shape is a graphic key element on ferm LIVING labels, business cards, shop inventory – and of course also in the ferm LIVING product design. A WORD FROM THE FOUNDER “The name ”ferm” was actually inspired by my grandmother. When she said that someone was “ferm på fingrene” – i.e. skilled with their hands, literally “good with their fingers” – it was high praise indeed. I like to think that she would approve of the ferm LIVING range; it is modern, but also has a reassuring homelike quality – and we try to make sure that every piece is made well.” “My designs have always been based in my own life. The very first wallpaper came into being because I couldn’t find the sort of crisp, graphic design I wanted. So, I simply decided that if I wanted a specific graphic style someone else might want it too – and went ahead and did it. Later, we became parents, and faced a similar situation when it came to design elements for children’s rooms. Later still, we found ourselves needing new things, as we moved into a bigger, loft-like home. Everyday life is my inspiration.” “I have never created anything on the basis of strategy or cool calculation; it has to come from the heart for me. I am very happy and grateful – and still somewhat surprised! – to see that these designs have appealed to so many people worldwide. And I still stick to the same design philosophy that began it all – doing what feels right. Then it has a much better chance of feeling right for someone else too.”
