Turi Design

TURI: The illustrator behind Turi-Design

Turis design for Figgjo Fajanse is more than just decoration.

Dive into the playful and colourful world of Turi Gramstad Oliver (b. 1938)! For 20 years, from 1960 to 1980, Turi worked as an illustrator for Figgjo Fajanse, creating a range of iconic tableware designs. Since then, she has worked as an artist – and she is still actively working today.

This exhibition takes you behind the scenes of Turi’s creative universe. Here you’ll discover original sketches, drafts, and rare objects that offer a unique insight into her creative process. You’ll also get a glimpse of how her artistic expression has extended to textiles, paper, and embroidery.

Whether you're a designer, illustrator, art lover – or simply someone who enjoys nostalgia and beautiful things – this is an exhibition you don’t want to miss. Come and celebrate one of Norway’s greatest design icons – and perhaps you’ll discover a new favourite along the way!
