As a Swede I always see the greys, nothing is ever black or white. Maybe you’ve heard about the Swedish word lagom? (If not check out the meaning here) Lagom is the perfect halfway point between two harsh sides, without being proud, the grey between black and white. Read More

A new take on String
If you knew me about ten years ago, you’d probably find me going through the very darkest corners of every second hand store in Stockholm in search for that perfect String. The String shelf, that is*. Everything mid century modern was on the rise and I was looking for my holy grail: black panels with three shelves in deep, dark read teak.

The hat stand doubles as a lamp that you can rotate around its own axis to direct the light where you most need it. Read More

A few years back, when I was still at school, I had been approached by a few businesses about my designs, mainly one that had been published in the pamphlet for a aluminum design competition. This was long before I had my own company. The design they were interested in was a good looking power strip in aluminum with a innovative on/off-function. The ones who contacted me wondered if I could produce it, and they would buy it and sell it. Read More
