I'm home

The old-established interior shop, "SVENSKT TENN" is located on the south side of the Ostermalm district in Stockholm, Sweden. Natural sunlight shines in the shop where organic and brightly-colored original furniture are lined up. In 1924, Swedish designer Estrid Ericson and Nils Fougstedt started to create classic art works that are made of pewter in 1927, and they opened the shop in its the current location. In 1933, Austrian architect Josef Frank joined them. The furniture and textile design that he has done has a good reputation abroad, becoming the premier leader of Swedish design.
An interior shop, "ASPLUND" that is in the same district as "SVENSK TENN", was started by Thomas and Michael Asplund brothers. Currently, Swedish designers who are active in the global front lines like Pia Wallen and Ingegerd Raman in addition to foreign designers provide their design works to ASPLUND. Their original rugs that are manually-handled from the dying process to the finishing process, using 100% high-quality New Zealand wool, became the topic of conversation every time a new design was introduced.
Sweden is where design is imbedded in people's daily lives as an industry. People in this country have the ability to assess authentically good designs for themselves, and therefore they can spend their daily lives happily. This may be why Sweden is called the kingdom of design.
