About Ygg & Lyng
ygg&lyng is a Norwegian furniture brand established in 2009, with a strong connection to wild Norwegian nature, functional design and traditional craftsmanship. Rooted in Nordic heritage and Scandinavian modernism, the collection is characterised by honest materials, refined forms and an emphasis on longevity. History, tradition and culture meet contemporary influences, creating a distinctive expression with depth and character. Elements of heritage are reflected in a contemporary expression, giving the collection a playful yet down-to-earth character. In close collaboration with designers, makers and manufacturers, ygg&lyng develops furniture and objects with an emphasis on thoughtful construction, quality and materials that age well over time.
With possibilities for personal adaptation, the collection is made for everyday life — for gathering, connecting and sharing time.
