Simen Aarseth works as a product designer and interior architect in Oslo; after completing his masters degree in 2010, he set up his own studio and is collaborating with other designers. His aim is to "incorporate complex ideas into simple and practical solutions." The up-and-coming Norwegian product designer's Puck Table was recently picked up by the British company Benchmark (they showed it at the 2011 Salone Mobile in Milan). We also like Aarseth's other work; to see more, go to Simen Aarseth.
