A city-wide showcase of design stories from around the world.

The design scene on this side of Scandinavia has snowballed. Refreshingly evolved far beyond the cultural clichés that have sometimes blighted the North in the past, Norway’s design output today is internationally relevant, planet-aware and innovation-driven.

On the contrary, it is these qualities that set apart Norwegian design from the rest of the world.

The pieces shown at Casa Norway present different aspects of issues related to craftsmanship, innovation in combination with environmental consciousness.
