I am obsessed with carved spoons and their makers right now. This delicate, organic selection is by Swedish woodworker Marie Eklund, there forms reminiscent of seed pods and fungi.

Emma Olbers
Beautifully proportioned, elegant design by Emma Olbers. I love the way her designs are named; top Ida, bottom Greta it seems to add to their character. Emma is working hard thinking about the ethics, sustainability and source of her furniture and this is giving her designs a special focus.
"Would you think that, for example, a stool looks better if you knew which tree in particular it had been made from? These were a few of the questions that kept me occupied . . . " Emma Olbers

"I use a chair to hang my clothes on before going to bed. Eventually they build up and become a big pile, sometimes the pile is so big it tips the chair over. With the "Shaker" I want to unburden my chair and give the clothes it's own space." Sophia Lithell

Sophia Lithell I


Naiver "This [design} goes against the rules of the craftsmanship, and questions the traditions, maybe the crafts need to re-new the thinking and making to not die out? Can the craft and furniture design be combined to create something new?" Sophia Lithell Thanks
