Strekk Design Collective

The creative collective started in 2008 as a collaboration project. The four fellow students from the product design program at Akershus University College, got to know each other early in their studies and discovered the benefits of working in a collective. By sharing common interests in culture and design they succeeded in creating a good working relationship, where ideas and opinions could be shared. With different geographical backgrounds in Norway, they were gathered in Oslo and operate their cooperation there.

The four members, Stian Korntved Ruud, Fredrik Wærnes, Jørgen Willumsen Platou and Nicolai Gulliksen use their different qualities deliberately to complement each other and cover a wide range of designs. The collective is intended as a common way to promote its members as individual designers.
