Ergonomic genius Peter Opsvik and his amazing furniture

Norwegian designer Peter Opsvik has an unusual perspective on the world around him. He has truly harnessed space and allows for shocking liberties with three dimensions. Looking at his furniture masterpieces, it's hard to believe they could be used, they are so unusual. But the fact is that even Opsvik's most outlandish designs are incredibly comfortable and practical.

In an age of consumerism, when manufacturers are interested in people buying more and more often, Peter Opsvik swims against the tide. He creates pieces that are designed to last. The Norwegian designer's beautiful, unique, and comfortable "smart" furniture is created according to a unique concept he personally developed.

One of Peter Opsvik's principles is that "movement is life." Therefore, his furniture completely allows for unrestricted movement. The carefully calculated biomechanics of his chairs, armchairs, and sofas allow people to move freely and assume comfortable positions.

Today, Opsvik is one of the most respected furniture designers in the world. No high-profile international exhibition is complete without his creations. The fruits of this brilliant designer's labors are almost always highly praised. Opsvik has won dozens of awards and prizes, including such prestigious ones as the NeoCon Gold Award, Index, Innovation Prize, Classic Prize, and Jacob Prize.

Peter Opsvik has been surprising the world with his creations for over 40 years. He always remains on trend, and young people have yet to surpass him. Everything he creates, be it a rocking chair, a coffee table, or a children's chair, is meticulously crafted in terms of comfort and functionality, and is always unique.

Peter Opsvik's furniture is light and cheerful. But the creations of Estonian designer Mati Karmin are the complete opposite. Karmin creates furniture from old naval mines.
