Touch-down in a new world of Norwegian design.

Norway Calling, the book of contemporary Norwegian design, is a kind of answer to the question of why Norwegian design is arousing such pleasure and curiosity today the world over.

It is the first book to mirror the exciting northern trend, introducing some of the principal figures and some of their most important projects – an excellent opportunity for design-lovers to acquaint themselves with the vigorous development of Norwegian design after such titans as Sverre Fehn, Grete Prytz Kittelsen and Arne Korsmo.

After years of silence there proved to be a new, living world of Norwegian design. There are now young designers who want to be a part of design development and they have, not least, the backing of a good organisation in Norsk Form and the Norwegian Design Council. Without their efforts and the training of government resources on the design sector, the new wave of design would not have attained the peaks it is now so triumphantly conquering.
