With the multiple award-winning ReForm designer collection, A New Wave, Laura Bilde and Linnea Blæhr launch their first carpet collection. The collaboration unites the duo's interpretations of the coastal elements sand, grass and sea in an uncompromising and three-dimensional collection that fits perfectly with Ege Carpets’ focus on sustainable design.
Later, another designer collection emerges from the collaboration – namely SHE, which pays tribute to the female designers and artisans of the past who’ve paved the way for future female artists.
Inspired by vintage weaving techniques, expressionist shapes and graphic paintings, the six SHE patterns are developed by hand as a recognition of imperfect interior design details and all the women that Laura and Linnea stand on the shoulders of.
Laura Bilde and Linnea Blæhr are sharing a deep understanding of aesthetics, the duo works with objects and spaces in the tension field between functionality and sculptural expressions. With their conceptual approach, they create designs that experiment with materials and shapes while combining tactility, sensuousness and enticement. The design philosophy is to create iconic, simple and timeless items.
