Against Mass
Production
Rethinking Production
Like the first project, the second continues Fjölheim’s effort to confront mass production — designing and crafting pieces that stand in quiet opposition to the now somewhat passé dominance of large corporations, while making thoughtful design accessible to the masses.
Íshaugur is designed and crafted in just 30 minutes, a bold statement against mass production. Its sculptural form, inspired by a pile of ice cubes, casts a warm, inviting light that transforms any space. Each piece comes complete with a carefully chosen lightbulb and holder, ready to illuminate your home with a soft, comforting glow.
The name Íshaugur combines Icelandic words for ice (ís) and heap (haugur), evoking the playful geometry of ice piled together. Like captured ice, the lamp holds and shapes light, turning it into a tactile, almost sculptural presence in your home.
The Bedouin Village Project
The Bedouin Village was designed by Fjölheim in 2025. It is the first in a long series of works. Each piece is shaped in seven minutes. The goal of the project is to design and produce a unique, handmade object in Berlin that can stand in contrast to—and compete with—mass production.
The Hús Lamp is the second piece in the Bedouine Village collection, sculpted in just seven minutes using air-dried clay. She does not hide her scars—she celebrates them. Because that’s what makes a home, and a human, real.
Comes with a light bump and lightbulb holder included.
Hús Lamp
Skjöldur Lamp is the third piece in the Bedouine Village collection. Sculpted in just seven minutes using air-dried clay. She does not hide her scars—she celebrates them. Because that’s what makes a home, and a human, real.
Comes with a light bump and lightbulb holder included.
Rót Lamp is the very first piece in the Bedouine Village collection. Sculpted in just seven minutes using air-dried clay. She does not hide her scars—she celebrates them. Because that’s what makes a home, and a human, real.
Comes with a light bump and lightbulb holder included.

Inside
our world
Fjölheim isn’t here to shove perfection in your face. The screws, nuts, and bolts are meant to be seen—worn proudly, like the scars in the wood, like those abandoned planks that still manage to hold everything together. It’s “perfect” in a human way. Marked, honest—like our scars, our tattoos, or the things we love or hate, depending on the day.
Fjölheim is inspired by both nature and people—a symbiosis of the two. There is no perfection here. Nature gets rough. People get tough. So does Fjölheim: pretty yet ugly, calm yet wild. Every piece carries a story, just as each of us does. A tree, a plank left on the street, a person—we all just need a bit of care. Not perfect, but resilient.
