Strek Collective

Strek Collective Strek Collective is a designstudio created by Fredrik Wærnes, Jørgen Platou Willumsen, Nicolai Gulliksen and Stian Korntved Ruud. Strek is based in Oslo.

Strek is a creative collective founded by four Norwegian designers with a dedicated approach to exploring the unknown and improving the known. Their work can be described through a respectful use of materials and a hands on approach to development. They mainly work towards the domestic field of product design with a desire to develop new experiences and useful relations between product and user. T

he four designers met in Oslo and Akershus University College and began working together in 2008. What started out as a collaboration between students has now resulted in numerous exhibitions including in Milan, Stockholm, Oslo and Paris. The strong ambition to always improve has made it possible for Strek Collective to establish their works in the international market. By thinking, creating and providing credible design, the collective will always do their best to stay one step ahead. Strek Collective consists of:

Fredrik Wærnes
Jørgen Platou Willumsen
Nicolai Gulliksen
Stian Korntved Ruud

As bachelor students in the product design program at Oslo and Akershus University College, the four students saw the benefits of collaborating and sharing ideas. In 2008 they established the collective with the goal to participate in international exhibitions to promote their products, themselves and the collective in its entirety. During the period of study they worked actively in developing individual projects besides school and participated in several exhibitions. In 2011 they finished their bachelor degrees in product design and participated the same year in the Milan Furniture Fair at SaloneSatellite. This became the beginning of their international establishment. In 2011 they also started the annual exhibition, Look to Norway, which shows new and exciting projects from young Norwegian designers. First exhibition was in Designers Open in Leipzig, where Look to Norway won the Jury’s Award price. The exhibition aims to participate in new fairs every year and make people look to Norway. The members of Strek Collective is currently taking their masters degrees at four different universities and cooperate by collectively develop products and work towards new exhibitions. 2012 is the first year where Strek Collective presents products developed together as a group. The collection of lamps and modul based trestles will be released during the Milan Furniture Fair at SaloneSatellite along with individual projects from the designers.

"I loved the simplicity of the Bow stacking stool by by the Strek Collective – it’s the result of a collaboration with Fyresdal Tre, a Norwegian wood manufacturer, that has involved combining traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design processes."
