Rabarbra – A flower vase by Anderssen & Voll for Nedre Foss

Like petals on a stem

The vase has a lot of different connotations.

We appreciate how the strict and defined architectural grammar of the object resonates well with the more expressive and animated objects of our collection.

But ‘Rabarbra’ also reminds us of something vegetal – a stylized flower with the top disc resting on the lower body like petals on a stem.

Standing on a low table, placed on a counter or seen from below standing on a shelf; the character changes a lot when you see it from different angles.

Nedre Foss is a Norwegian brand of sustainable homeware objects rooted in Scandinavian design.

Anderssen & Voll
Anderssen + Voll originally met and established a lasting friendship through their shared love of creativity. After graduating from the Bergen Academy of Art and Design and the Oslo National Academy of Art, they cofounded the design group Norway Says in 2000. Norway Says was a forerunner in a growing international orientation amongst Norwegian designers, drawing international interest to Norway’s emerging young design scene.

As a result of their success, Anderssen & Voll was formally established in 2009. Their work spans furniture, lighting, home accessories, textile design and interior design for some of Europe’s most renowned international brands.
