Reviews

Found two men in your bathtub? It's all right... it's the design duo Bernt Heiberg and William Cummings. Based in Oslo and New York, the two bring a Scandinavian flair to their commissions.... With neutral colors, antiques and international finds, White Light: Heiberg Cummings Design features their hand-written design notes, graphic black-and-white photography, and image upon image of cool (but never chilly) rooms. --New York Observer A sumptuous new monograph.... conveys a sense of tactility and poetry. Keith Scott Morton's photographs capture the rumpled organic comfort of Belgian linen, the cool smoothness of soapstone eggs sitting in a silver dish, the integrity of well-oiled wood. --1st Dibs
