A graduate of the Bergen Academy of Art and Design, Stine continues to live and work in Norway's west coast city of Bergen. Stine debuted on the Norwegian design scene just a few years ago, and since then, has produced a range of furniture and interior accessories that industry insiders describe as ground-breaking. Some say Stine remains true to the Nordic tradition of wood craftsmanship; others say she has set a new standard for the craft. Stine's eye for color is unique. She works with finishes that echo design trends, but more importantly, chooses tones that bring out the product's personality.
