Eystein Sandnes - Industrial design

Kr 350

Eystein Sandnes was a particularly active designer. The production covered everything from glass and porcelain to cutlery and doorknobs. For the vast majority, however, Sandnes is best known as chief designer for Porsgrunds Porselænsfabrik, where he worked for more than 30 years. Sandnes was also a designer for Magnor Glassverk and Stavangerflint. In addition, the book refers to lesser-known works, such as ceramic jewelery and glass for Hadeland Glassverk.

This publication is part of the award-winning book series that pays tribute to Norwegian designers who deserve a rightful place in people's consciousness. Norway has a rich design and craft culture that author Mats Linder has immersed himself in. The books are intended as an introduction to the background history and the designer's selected works.

The book has both Norwegian and English text.

Mats Linder is a writer and author and produces books about Norwegian design at a breakneck pace. He wants to focus on design and handicrafts from the Scandinavian countries - Scandinavian Design, and aims to raise interest and knowledge about design from Scandinavia by publishing biographies of designers, company reviews and reproducing old advertising. He also wants to focus on what is moving within the design scene today and interviews designers and business leaders who have something on their mind.
