About Plesner Patterns

Plesner Patterns is a Norwegian design studio offering custom designed surface patterns for interior, architecture and fashion.
The designs are inspired by small, everyday events, with a desire to perpetuate seemingly unimportant moments. The patterns are made with craftsmanship and manual methods, such as the use of using ink, moss and play dough before being digitalised. This creates a distinctive expression that has a sense of time and "soul". Plesner Patterns want to offer something that consists of more layers and leave traces of a journey.
All the patterns can be printed on fabrics of different qualities, some of them are also available woven. Colour and size can be customized according your needs. Please see the “ready to order” patterns available. Wallpaper, foil and tiles can also be produced with the prints.
Plesner Patterns was founded in 2018 by Kiki Plesner-Löfroth from Oslo. She studied Art Direction at Westerdals Oslo ACT and Graphic Design at Swinburne University of Technology, Australia. As a graphic designer she is experienced in creating visual identities and is dedicated to mirroring the client’s values in her work.
Bespoke and brand patterns
Custom designed patterns are made upon request. This will give the client a bespoke unique pattern that reflects any given brief. A custom design can also be made as a brand pattern: Patterns that reflect corporate values and identity. If a company already has guidelines for developing identity elements, the pattern can be designed within these frameworks. This gives each customer a unique pattern that functions as a sophisticated extension of their visual identity. Particularly suitable for interior of offices, canteens and stores. The pattern works as an extension of the visual identity. It gives the brand a uniform and strong visual impact.
An Ode to grandmother Aslaug
The logo is based on the old family monogram, used as an Ode to Kiki Plesner-Löfroth’s grandmother who had an incredibly eye for interior combinations. The interiors she created together with different interior designers where both classic and daring. The home and cottage she left behind still has class and uniqueness, and is valid today as it was when created.

Patterns of Norway - Inside the mind of a textile designer.
Studio Ogee is a small interior design studio based in London. We have been working closely with Plesner Patterns to deliver beautiful and bespoke interior schemes to our Clients. Scandinavian design is trending here at the moment; with its clean lines, minimalist simplicity, nod to nature, quality and craftsmanship, which is why Plesner Patterns fit perfectly into our designs. We also love that Kiki’s patterns have a touch of humour and playfulness to them, and the back story to how each pattern evolved and was designed is a real selling point in terms of capturing that Scandinavian authenticity that our Clients are looking for.
