The architect behind the design
FurniBloom’s designer, Dagný Bjarnadóttir, is a landscape architect and owner of the Icelandic landscape architecture firm DLD - Dagný Land Design. She holds a master’s degree in landscape architecture from the Royal Agricultural University of Copenhagen.
Ms Bjarnadóttir’s work ranges from large-scale landscape projects to detailed, small-scale designs. Among her major interests are exhibitions and installations. Her latest design project was her contribution to the New Nordic Landscapes exhibition at the World EXPO 2010 in Shanghai, where her FurniBloom furniture served as a layout for the Nordic countries’ landscape architecture project.
Design mottos and visions
“I feel that a good design gives some kind of wellbeing. It can evoke delight, surprise, joy - even laughter.
For me, good design usually grows out of a deep understanding of the subject and intuition – along with a feeling for the use of materials and aesthetics. Sometimes even psychology plays a part.
I work with the certainty that every project offers opportunities to create an exciting experience and an enjoyable environment that improves the quality of life and better society”.
