17. - 21.09.2008 - Norwegian design goes international
Over 60 products from approximately 35 designers and 29 manufacturers were displayed at the Norwegian exhibitions at Earls Court and Covent Garden. Both attracted a lot of attention both prior to and during the show.
BOEN was proud to deliver Ash Polar flooring for the booth at Earls Court. 100% Norway is organized by the Norwegian Embassy in London and Norsk Designråd, in cooperation with Innovasjon Norge and Norwegian Industry/InsideNorway. The exhibitions are part of the London Design Festival and took place for the fifth time.
This time, the show was officially opened by HRH Crown Princess Mette-Marit who is the patron of the Norwegian Design Council. It was the 3rd time that Mette Marit visited 100% Norway in London.
Recently, BOEN has also teamed up with young furniture designers of the moment, Tveit & Tornøe, and textile designers Anne Bårdsgård and Merete Christensen, to create new visually stunning wooden floors that not only look good but fulfill BOEN’s high standard of quality. The idea and a prototype was presented at the design conference Beyond Risør in Norway earlier this year.
