Oscar Narud

Oscar was born in 1978 in Oslo, studied at Central St.Martins and did his MA at the Royal College of Art from where he graduated in 2006. He has worked for celebrated studios such as El Ultimo Grito and Nigel Coates. He is a founding member (2006) of the nine strong OKAY design collective in North London, from where he runs his day-to-day practice.

Alongside a number of private commissions he has also worked with the British Council, the Aram Gallery, the Royal College of Art and the Centre for Contemporary Art in Warsaw. His work has been exhibited extensively across Europe and featured in a number of publications. His latest work (Oct. 2010) is included in notable galleries such as Phillips De Pury in London and Moss Gallery in New York.

There is a sense of simplicity and functionality to his work that seems to dictate and drive the aesthetics alongside a keen interest in drawing and making. Simple materials, processes and structural elements are highlighted and become the focal point of many of his designs. He continues to develop and exhibit his own work and expand on his approach to design.

Omer Arbel Office

OAO (Omer Arbel Office) is active within the traditionally defined fields of architecture, industrial design, craft and materials research; we are most comfortable in the ambiguous zones of overlap between them. We operate within constantly oscillating parameters of scale, site, socioeconomics, phenomenological experiment, power relationships, environmental imperative and allegorical relevance. Our goal is to create extraordinary projects. OAO was established in 2005 in Vancouver by Omer Arbel, and has since grown to include a small team of both generalists and specialists from very different backgrounds, organized as a collaborative studio. Our clients include private individuals, manufacturing companies, fine craft focused ateliers, property developers and institutions of various sorts.
