Explore our collection and bring home a piece of Norwegian design history that continues to set the standard for modern interiors.
Alf Sture was a pioneer in Norwegian furniture design, known for his ability to unite form and functionality in a way that has shaped Scandinavian design for several decades.
Like her husband, Gunnvor Een Sture trained as a designer, and together they founded a design office in 1952. While Gunnvor also contributed to the furniture design, it is above all the textiles, among other interior elements, that stand out as distinctly her contribution.
Together, the couple Alf and Gunnvor Een Sture created timeless furniture, textiles, and interiors that have found their place in Norwegian homes and institutions, as well as in national exhibitions.
