Fora Form

🌍 Cluster thinking, Sustainability and Innovation in Design at IDC Norway 🌿 We were proud to partner once again in this year’s IDC Norway conference, representing the design and engineering cluster of the Møre region. One of our talented designer, Runa Klock took the stage to share insights on how sustainability is actively woven into the design process at Fora Form, focusing on our ROOT table. Her talk highlighted how thoughtful design can create lasting impact while promoting environmental responsibility. We were also excited to showcase our newest creation—the BUD chair—designed by Skogstad&Wærnes. Featured on stage, BUD sparked engaging discussions on design, functionality, and how furniture can be sustainability manufactured. At Fora Form, we continue to push the boundaries of design by creating innovative solutions that not only bring people together but also make a positive difference for our planet. 🌱 #IDCNorway #SustainableDesign #Innovation #ForaForm #BUDChair #FurnitureDesign #DesignForCollaboration

We need to talk more Our most important and defining source of meaning is our social relationships. Yet, research shows that 44% of people in Norway struggle with loneliness. That's nearly half of the population. Experiencing that we matter to others is crucial for living a meaningful life. Still, many of us find it hard to make time to check in on each other in our busy daily lives. We spend 8 hours a day at work, which accounts for 1/3 of a day. Most of us go to a workplace where we meet colleagues and friends we care about. Even though much of modern work life is centered around hybrid solutions and technological operations, the workplace remains one of the most important arenas for interaction and communication. To overcome tomorrow’s work challenges, we depend on good internal flow, knowledge sharing, collaboration, and a sense of community among colleagues. If social relationships are not nurtured, the likelihood of increased innovation in the company will likely decrease. It’s not hard to set aside time for a short chat, whether at work or in private. But maybe we need to clear space in our schedules to focus on truly meaningful tasks. We need to talk more, in general. So today, we encourage you to give 8 minutes to someone close to you. Perhaps you can cultivate a shared understanding of different challenges, or at best; maybe you can help someone feel like they matter 🤍 #gi8minutter #give8minutes #verdensdagenforpsykiskhelse #worldmentalhealthday Verdensdagen for psykisk helse

BDO has new premises in Trondheim, and we have delivered furniture! 👇🏼 In these office spaces, reuse and Scandinavian design take center stage.

How can we symbolize different uses through the furniture we choose? Today, we have meeting rooms for various purposes, and the furniture you select actually helps to symbolize the intended use of a given space 🌟 Of course, the visual aspect is only one side of the coin. In addition to symbolizing different uses through furniture, we also provide various functions for different uses. Let us take you on a speed-date with our best-selling meeting chairs! 💭 Dwell is a spacious and comfortable meeting chair, providing each participant with their own sphere thanks to its enveloping shape. Not only is the chair spacious, but it is also designed with comfort in mind, allowing you to sit comfortably for extended periods.

With its simple design language and countless options and combinations, this is the chair for smaller project rooms that require space efficiency and rooms focused on technology. 🤭 BUD also deserves a spot here! BUD is, in many ways, exactly what it claims to be: a playful companion for informal meetings where creativity, efficiency, and movement are in focus. This chair offers honest construction, simple mechanisms, and great comfort. And let’s be honest, who wouldn’t be in a good mood after seeing this little buddy? And if you need help choosing the right meeting chair, you've now received four great tips to guide you! #furniture #meetingroom #conference #design

Yesterday, Fora Forms Copenhagen Chair, designed by Lars Tornøe, finally reached its intended home; the Norwegian Ambassador's residence in Copenhagen, almost twenty years after it was designed as Lars’ master thesis. 🙌 "It's cool that the chair is finally going to the embassy residence. After all, it is the building it was intended for. I look forward to sharing the story," says Lars Tornøe Tornøe in a statement. 🏡 The Federation for Norwegian Industries event in Copenhagen set up the event to show Danish press, tastemakers, and market influencers the best designs from the brotherland. The renowned stylist kirsten visdal had curated the residence. 🙌 Our recent launch, the BUD chair designed by Skogstad&Wærnes was also on display. Also on display was the updated ROOT table designed by Runa Klock with the new tabletop made of recycled yogurt puts and refrigerators from Smile Plastics ♻️ Great examples of how Fora Form views sustainability as caring for both the environment as well as people with human-centric designs. A big thanks to the organizers Norsk Industri (Design Industrien), led by Egil Sundet, arranged by Ragnhild Bakkland Grytten and Annette Hoff, as well as Innovasjon Norge and Utenriksdepartementet with the ambassador Katja Christina Nordgaard graciously opening the residence to us… Should we leave the Copenhagen Chair in the residence? Let us know what you think in the comments😜

From wicker furniture production to becoming a leading Norwegian furniture manufacturer for the contract market – here are 5 facts you might not know about Fora Form: 📜 Fora Form was established in 1929 (then known as Møre Kurvmøbelfabrikk AS). In other words, we've been making furniture for nearly 100 years! Since then, we've been registered under both Møre Kurvmøbelfabrikk AS and Møre møbler AS, before changing our name to Fora Form in 1997! 🪑While many might think that Møre møbler (Møre furniture) was a more descriptive name for the company, Fora Form actually better reflects what we do. We create forums through form – and that's how we became Fora Form! 🏆 We are Norway’s most-awarded design company, with over 50 awards! Just in 2024, we’ve won two design awards: Atrium won "Product of the Year" at the Norwegian Design Industry Conference, and Senso won the German Design Award for Senso Frame! We’re, of course, very proud of that! 🏭 We have a factory on Norway’s beautiful west coast – specifically in Ørsta! The factory has been here since we were established, and we are proud to contribute to creating over 50 Norwegian jobs! Additionally, our company naturally has a positive impact on the local community, where we also have several of our subcontractors! Long live Norwegian production! 🫱🏻🫲🏽 We are owned by Lammhults Design Group AB and have been part of the group since 2013. This leads to close collaboration with our sister companies, Lammhults Möbel AB , Abstracta AB and Ragnars Inredningar allowing the group to offer everything from furniture for social areas to acoustics and workspaces! In other words, we are a solid group with broad expertise – and we’re happy to help you with your next project!
