Last week’s Stockholm Furniture and Lighting Fair at the Stockholmsmässan convention center was an incredible mix of new and old. Scandinavian makers and manufacturers both large and small brought a wide range of products from up-to-the-second design as well as the ever sought after classics from the modernist to mid-century periods. Although there were exhibitors from some 60 countries, the 'Local' brands did their best to stand out on the cutting edge.
Carl Hansen & Sons
The venerable furniture firm created a warm, intimate environment where their classic pieces such as the 'Y' (or Wishbone) Chair by Hans Wegner could shine. Timeless details combined with new material and color way options keep these lines desirable and fresh.
Bruno Mathsson
The 'Mia' (Mi407) steel and leather chair in vapor blue was the hit of the Bruno Mathsson stand with supple leather and chromed steel frame that carry this classic well into the 21st century.
The Royal System | Poul Cadovius
The Royal System® by Poul Cadovius represented by Danish firm dk3 is utterly timeless with brass struts that use no fasteners supporting oak or walnut shelves that seem to defy gravity.
Claesson Koivisto Rune for Offecct
Our friends over at Claesson Koivisto Rune have created a clever new chair called 'Jacket' for Offecct. The seat-back emulates the shape of the human shoulder and complements any article of clothing one rests upon it.
