PIA

Designed in Norway

-I wanted to create something of my own, something that feels thoughtful, real and that gives a little luxury to everyday life. With a needle, thread and many hours at the sewing machine, the first collection was created, and this was just the beginning.

PIA Designed In Norway has grown through a strong drive to build something from scratch.

The interest in design, details and developing my own products has always been central. I previously qualified for the Norwegian Championship in Young Entrepreneurship, and that's where the interest in building something from idea to finished concept really grew.

-Seeing something go from idea to finished product gives an indescribable energy, and that feeling is precisely what lies behind the brand.

The first collection consists of hand-sewn toiletry bags in two thoughtful sizes. A small one – surprisingly spacious, and a large one – with space for both makeup and toiletries.

Each folder is designed to be both practical and aesthetic – a little eye-catcher in everyday life.

The choice of fabrics has been an important part of the process. The expression is based on characteristic, timeless patterns and carefully curated quality fabrics. I mainly choose structured furniture fabrics with weight and durability. Materials that give the products an exclusive feel and a sense of permanence. Not basic, but complete, sophisticated and with a subtle twist.

For PIA Designed In Norway, a toiletry bag is more than just storage. It's a small statement piece – something you carry in your bag, leave out in the bathroom, and that makes you feel a little more “put together”.

The products should last, feel luxurious and make you want to take care of them.

PIA Designed In Norway is about quality, aesthetics and love for detail.
