Brita Drewsen (5 May 1887 – 18 September 1983) was a Swedish artist and businesswoman who spent her working life in Denmark, creating household textiles and handicrafts. In 1925, working with the Danish entrepreneur Kaj Dessau, she designed the pioneering interiors of the Copenhagen household furnishings store, now Illums Bolighus, attracting international acclaim. In the 1930s, she collaborated with the weaver Gudrun Clemens, producing rugs, curtains and upholstery at "The Blue Factory" (Den blaa Fabrik) in Lyngby. Together with the designer Bjørn Wiinblad, she created furniture and arranged arts and crafts exhibitions there in the 1970s. Drewsen's early preferences for softly coloured textiles formed an important aspect of Danish design.
