In the first issue of the magazine Wake up is the relationship between Icelandic design and nature examined. Does nature follow us in everything we do as Icelandic designers, whether consciously or unconsciously? Whether it is from the rough edges of the lava or to the movements of the ocean? Nature is a constant inspiration and we are an integral part of nature, although some feel disconnected Design strengthens these relationships through experience, materials, textures and forms. By pairing fonts, the use of white space and the installation of photographs and interviews, a flow is created that reflects the relationship between design and nature.
