Tripp Trapp designer receives distinguished prize

Peter Opsvik received the Anders Jahres Cultural Prize on September 4th, 2008 for his achievements spanning almost five decades.



The prize is the highest regarded cultural prize in Norway. In the weeks after it went public that Opsvik was going to receive the honor, including a certificate and a cash award, the news has been everywhere, including in-depth interviews in the major national newspapers in Norway.

In every statement about�Opsvik, the Tripp Trapp highchair and the Stokke name have claimed their fair share of the fame. While handing the prize to Opsvik, the Chairman of the Board of the Anders Jahre foundation, said: "You may not know Peter Ospvik by name, but if you ask anyone on the street, nine out of ten know the Tripp Trapp".

The award-winning Tripp Trapp highchair was launched by Stokke in 1972.
