The design duo Stilleben – Ditte Reckweg & Jelena Schou Nordentoft – belongs to a new generation of designers who respect tradition, but also possess the boldness it takes to innovate. They both graduated from the Danish Design School in 2001, having specialized in ceramics and glass, and together they run the business Stilleben No. 22 in Copenhagen.
STILLEBEN V/RECKWEG & NORDENTOFT
Ever since the Stilleben duo opened their first Stilleben store, they have fostered ideas that have resulted in new and modern design. And, in addition to running their own line of Stilleben designs – including tableware, posters, furniture, and accessories, the duo collaborates with internationally renowned design companies such as Kähler, Skagerak, and Lyngby Porcelæn.
Today, both their brand and their designs are recognized worldwide, and the duo concretized their position in modern design history in 2008 with their design for Kähler's iconic Omaggio vase, which immediately became a worldwide best-seller - and later for Omaggio Nuovo, which has helped define and redefine classic Danish design of our time.
