JENNY NORDBERG for BUKOWSKIS
The contrast is striking when you roll up to industrial designer Jenny Nordberg's house in the small village of Röstånga in northern Skåne. From the turn of the century, a classic red-painted wooden house has received an ascetic and modern addition completely covered in black tar paper, which evokes thoughts of some modernist Yakisugi facade. The result feels unexpected, interesting, and sharp. Just like Jenny and her work.
Jenny Nordberg won Designer of the Year twice in 2022, has received numerous awards over the years, and is represented in design galleries in Stockholm and New York. Her investigative and experimental work moves in the borderland between design and art and is always based on much thought and solid research. Yet, chance often plays an important role in the final result.
