Tidemand Ruud took his degree in 1935 while studying at the State Handicraft and Art Industry School. He worked in the family business until 1953 when he acquired AS Inventar at Gjøvik after his father's death. Here he operated the factory together with his wife Solveig Tidemand Ruud. For three decades, they designed and produced their own furniture and furnishings for cafes, restaurants, banks and hotels.
