Collection
Heidi Skjeggestad grew up on a small peninsula beside a Norwegian fjord — a landscape shaped by Viking seafarers and the unhurried rhythms of nature — and has drawn on that elemental foundation ever since. From an early age she was attuned to natural materials: their properties, their relationship to light, and their capacity to shape wellbeing and space.
Her formal education in interior architecture in Denmark, complemented by fine art drawing and painting studies in Norway, gave precise language to an intuition she had always possessed. At 23, she designed her first furniture collection — professionally handcrafted in Oslo using traditional techniques — and established her first company alongside an Interior Design and Fine Art Gallery, where hand-knotted seagrass rugs, wool carpets, and exclusive woven fabrics from England and France became signatures of her aesthetic.
A career that has taken her through Paris, London, and Dubai, she is now based in Milan. Wherever her practice leads, she returns to the Norwegian peninsula she grew up on — restoring centuries-old timber houses by hand, working with the same materials and the same patience that first shaped her eye.
Light remains the essential element in her work as a painter, photographer, and art consultant — the variable that transforms a space, a surface, or a material into something that moves. Her focus on detail, she believes, is what turns the real into the timeless.
A collection of rugs inspired by the sophisticated interplay of light and shadow created by natural elements such as plants and flowers. Each design is the result of a combination of colour shades that accentuate the realism of every composition and create a three-dimensional effect, lending a distinctive depth to each design.
A collection drawn from fjord light and Nordic landscape — where the quiet drama of natural materials meets a refined international sensibility. Texture as memory. Light as structure. Each piece a study in the beauty of the elemental.
Heidi Skjeggestad's debut collection with Habit is taking shape — a series of hand-knotted rugs that translate the light, texture, and elemental character of the Nordic landscape into surfaces crafted by skilled Asian arteliers.
