Oslo forms the backdrop for designer Falke Svatun’s work, where sketches on paper evolve into objects that sit between the functional and the reflective. Trained in Sydney, seasoned in Copenhagen, and now rooted in Norway, his approach is one of patience: letting ideas rest until they gain weight, until they feel enduring. Falke’s design language draws on the everyday - those familiar forms we return to, the fragments of memory that resurface - and transforms them through subtle shifts in material, light, and scale.

For this piece, we met with Falke Svatun in his hometown, Oslo, delving into the themes of nomading, design, and the impact of everyday objects - those that quietly shape our routines and those we carry with us for life.
