Jarle Slyngstad

His work as a designer springs from a strong urge to create.  his urge leads him into new landscapes with new challenges. The challenges are the mechanism that triggers the spark energy to solve problems. Good design is simple answers to complex questions. The aesthetics of the design springs from the simplicity of the solution. This is also the characteristic of Scandinavian Design.

In times with a strong focus on the environment, it is a paradox that we create more and more products. Jarle Slyngstad`s approach will always be to create products you will love and will last long.
