Further proving they have the chops to be in the design stratosphere are the awards they’ve received, including an Elle Decoration Swedish Design Award for Designer of the Year in 2014 and the Elle Decoration DesignPris in 2013. Good Design Awards, Wallpaper Design Awards and DesignPlus Awards are also theirs to keep. Even a passing look at their home page shows they are as comfortable designing furnishings with a down-home appeal as they are the sleekest-of-the-sleek modern pieces. Their Par pendant for Zero Interior is an example of their attention to detail, par excellence!
ABOUT THE DESIGNER
MAJA & SAMUEL NORBURG
Pholc. A Swedish lighting brand with a new take on Scandinavian design. We believe in the power of expressive simplicity – in creating timeless aesthetics with strong personalities. We keep pushing the boundaries, encouraging constant motion between the familiar and the unknown, always taking a stand against the expected. Swedish – never ordinary.
Their lighting solutions are designed to elevate any room. Every lamp with its own unique style and personality – calls for attention, awakens curiosity. We relentlessly explore new approaches and expressions through our collaboration with talents from different fields. Our partners share a unique ability and courage to make strong design statements. Together we challenge conventions and create for the future.
Founded in 2015 by Maja and Samuel Norburg with an ambition to define and shape what Swedish design can be. Pholc is driven by the will to always stay expressive, relevant, sophisticated, and informed.
