NO GA furniture
NO GA has played a significant role in introducing international premium design in the Nordics, and as early as 1967, the company produced its first piece of furniture, the family sofa, designed by the Italian architect Tobia Scarpa. Today, NO GA has revived that tradition and has its own furniture collection, including masterpieces by architects like Paul T. Frankl and Sven Markelius.

Visitors are always greeted by knowledgeable staff in the showroom, and NO GA also offers a complimentary interior design service to help guide its customers.

The New Era Magazine is recognized as one of Scandinavia’s leading publications, featuring interiors, architecture, design, and craftsmanship in a beautifully designed biannual edition. NO GA will also take the opportunity to launch its new magazine, Edit.
