Through Dolphin, Øivind Tidemandsen acquired a stake in Idé Kim Tvedt with the ambition of developing and establishing a new challenger in the furniture and interior market. Idé Kim Tvedt was a furniture retailer with several large stores in southwestern Norway. The new company and concept were named Living.
Living evolved into a nationwide furniture and interior design retailer with several department stores in Norway, before Dolphin later divested its ownership stake. In 2012, Living merged with Skeidar to form SkeidarLiving Group.
