Founded in 2016 by Kine Ask Stenersen and Kristoffer Eng (and first in 2017), is one of my favourite to follow. The Norwegian design studio was born from the couple’s desire to produce sustainable solutions when renovating, having designed and built their own kitchens and furniture for a number of years. With Kine’s background in environmental geography and climate change, and Kristoffer’s background in architecture, the launch of their own brand was a natural progression and has resulted in the production of many beautiful projects over the years. One such project, which I’m sharing today, is a newly built home located on the west coast of Norway, in Ålesund.
Showcasing their functional custom designs and beautiful Nordic craftsmanship, Ask og Eng designed and produced all the furniture for the kitchen, wardrobe, laundry and bathroom. Known for their use of bamboo, which they favour for both its aesthetics and sustainability, they chose a beautiful grain bamboo for the kitchen and wardrobe. For the bathroom furniture, they chose to use wheat, which in contrast gives a more delicate Scandinavian feel. All of the pieces were custom made from the , to perfectly suit the needs of the homeowners.
