Anna Maria Øfstedal Eng (b. 1993) is an Oslo-based product designer with a master’s degree from Oslo Metropolitan University. She makes her objects by hand, preferably from local, recycled materials. Her designs are manufactured by Ferm Living, and her sculptural ceramic vase ‘Uben’ won ‘Readers’ Award of the Year’ in the Norwegian Bo Bedre Design Awards 2022.

«I've always been drawn to design products that lies in between the sculptural and the functional, where I want to design products that are visually captivating from every angle, where each perspective unveils something new and exciting. A product that never bores you. Like a piece of art that not only adds aesthetic pleasure and experiences to home, but also serves a practical purpose. Functional art. By crafting sculptural products with real materials that appeal as much to our heart and emotions, as to our brain, I believe we can create designs that stand the test of time and become cherished fixtures for the future»
