Urd Moll Gundermann

The Danish designer Urd Moll Gundermann grew up in a creative home with a father who was a visual artist. Their conversations and his approach to work helped shape her understanding of design and art. “Even as a child, I knew I had an inner drive to create, and that my future lay in the creative field,” she explains.

For Urd, design is about storytelling. Her intuitive, exploratory approach reflects a deep fascination with materials – how textures, contrasts, and harmonies evoke emotion. Her inspirations are manifold, spanning art in all forms, nature's shifting light, architectural shapes, reflections on water and the tactile qualities of surfaces. "Design is more than form and function – it’s a dialogue with the space around it. A well-crafted piece doesn’t just exist; it engages, evokes, and takes on a life of its own," Urd elaborates.

For Normann Copenhagen, Urd has created Seam Rug and Level Rug, two designs that draw inspiration from tailoring techniques, rooted in her background in fashion.
