How we work with design
Heymat has its roots in the Scandinavian design tradition of making good and functional products that can be used every day. Products that everyone will be happy to come home to.
We work closely with selected designers. Designers who are leaders in their field, and who share our values. With our experience and their creativity, we always create something new, interesting and functional together.
Our design processes take time, because we test and tweak our products to make sure that they will work, not just for one season, but to be something that you can keep for a long time.
Developing a new design and a new story is exciting. We are proud of every design partnership and every new Heymat – and we are thrilled every time we see one of our products in use
Designers
Acclaimed both nationally and internationally, Oslo-based Hallgeir Homstvedt has a remarkable portfolio of work spanning furniture, interior and product design
”Hex must be a quality product, in terms of both durability and design that lasts over time. It is something I aim for in most projects”
”I wanted to create a new version of Mix that feels harmonious yet also inspiring to come home to. I was strongly influenced by the soft and almost meditative colour scale of precious stones”
"Vera & Kyte is made up of Vera Kleppe and Åshild Kyte. Their design studio is in Bergen on the west coast of Norway. They opened up the studio together in 2013, and their work has received international interest and acclaim ever since."
”It was important for me to design something that was based on Heymat’s values, so the natural environment of Mo i Rana became my inspiration for the mats. It’s fun working with a manufacturer that has such a focus on quality in everything they do”
”To get to design both logo, identity and mats for Heymat has been my dream commission. I knew they had a great product, and it is incredibly fun to see the huge success they have achieved”
”The mats aren’t just environmentally friendly because they are recycled, but their high quality ensures a long life. Then it’s up to me to create a design that makes the customer want to use it for the same amount of time.”
