ferm LIVING is a Danish company that aims at designing and manufacturing interior products with a graphic touch. The product range consists of wallpaper, wall stickers, textiles, kitchen items, a large KIDS collection and much more great stuff to come…


"ferm LIVING originates from a graphic design agency in Aarhus, Denmark, founded by Trine Andersen in 2005. The company came to life after Trine, mostly for fun, decided to visit a clairvoyant. (Who would have thought!) Trine was quite astonished when the clairvoyand saw a little bird sitting confused on a branch, not knowing which way to fly. This sight was essential for Trine’s decision to follow her dream of starting her own business. When she then founded ferm, the little bird found knew exactly where to go and now sits on top of the company logo.

The company went from being a graphic design agency to a company designs and selling lifestyle products when Trine was re-decoration her house. She was looking for graphic wallpaper, but just couldn’t find the right pattern – and when she found it, it was way too expensive. Trine decided, that other people probably felt the same way, so she decided to take it upon herself to create graphic wallpaper patterns at an affordable price. By February 2006, the very first wallpaper collection hit the streets, and since then things have been going fast! ferm LIVING now operates in many markets around the world and has agents/distributors in Australia, USA, Finland, The Netherlands, UK, Spain, France, Italy, Sweden and Japan."


What a wonderful tale, special things can happen when you simply stop and listen...

ferm LIVING are always thinking of new ideas, designs and are always on the hunt for new sources of inspiration. Their blog is a great way of understanding how their design brains work and why the company is so special.

Here are my favourite images from their Autumn Winter 2012 Collection. It's a shame that they are European and their seasons are opposite to ours. On second thought, perhaps it's exciting to purchase something online and wait for the excitement of being able to use it when the cooler months come around!
