This is Gry Fager, the designer of the Mormor series – and this is the story about how you make a grown up Japanese man (Hirai-San aka Mr. Scope) fall in love in one hour. We went to Gry’s new studio in Copenhagen. The purpose of our visit was to learn more about the concept and design process of the Mormor series.
A typical Danish coffee table. You may recognize the Grass vase designed by Claydies. Gry knows the two ladies very well since she worked in the Claydies studio during her studies at the Danish designschool.
Gry Fagers homemade apple-pie… to die for.
Throughout the visit Hirai-San aka Mr. Scope took lots of notes – in Japanese of cause. If you want to learn what he thought visit his blog – in Japanese of cause.
Knitted sweets made by Gry’s own grandma… as well as the handmade decoration on the tablecloth.
A very unique gift. Gry gave Mr. Scope the very first Mormor jug ever made.
Rika did a amazing job translating and getting every single point right – every time.
Every word was translated between English and Japanese. The languages may be very different, but our sense of humor and love for great design is one common language.
