Marian Knudsvik and Gudbjørg Simonsen
Profile
Magu Design. Architects, interior architects and interior design professionals with years of experience creating office buildings, commercial spaces and residential homes.
We design buildings, spaces and environments that reflect the changes that are occurring in society, especially where new technology is concerned. A living or working space should be given a clear identity. Magu Design challenges conventional thinking and we are not afraid to test the limits of design. The environments in which we work and live have a great effect on our lives. Our surroundings should be inspiring and suited to their purpose.
Interior architects work at the crossroads of development and adaptation, in the grey-zone between fantasy and action. Magu Design also wants our work to produce joy and passion – with a dash of liberating craziness. We always look for the forest through the trees, and we work on the basic principle that every client feels at home in the environment we create.
Our Goals
Open minds and flexibility. Enthusiasm and commitment as the foundation for excellence in all our projects. Each project is new and worthy of our best efforts. Each project deserves that little extra pizzazz. Our clients should find it enjoyable to work with us.
Mission Statement:
Create enjoyment, through dreams and everyday miracles.
