THE 10 BEST NEW PRODUCTS AT STOCKHOLM DESIGN WEEK

There’s nothing quite like the feeling of getting lost in a new city. And Stockholm has officially stolen my heart—its archipelago of charming islands is the perfect place to wander aimlessly. The historic city also has its share of must-sees, of course, and Stockholm Design Week, held earlier this month, is one of them. Scandinavian design is all about mixing minimalist form and function with innovation—and keeping sustainability top of mind. This year’s showing was no exception. From the expertly crafted wood pieces at Carl Hansen & Son (which uses its post-production waste to heat 750 houses in surrounding neighborhoods) to Fogia’s ultra-sleek seating (which gets all of its feathers, downs, and leathers from by-products of other industries), the best of Stockholm Design Week keeps giving. Read on for my favorite finds from the shows.

ROSENTHAL MAGIC GARDEN COLLECTION

Sacha Walckhoff has mastered print mixing in this dreamy dinnerware collection for Rosenthal.

FREDRIK PAULSEN

The endlessly talented designer took home his second ED Design Award this year; I’m smitten with this pink chair.

GUBI WONDER SOFA

Not only did Gubi launch the coziest new sofa, they also decked out the Six Hotel with them, making for the chicest lobby around.

APPALOOSA BENCH

Just when I thought there was nothing in the world I wanted more than Hästens’s Appaloosa bed, the company teamed up with Swedish design duo Bernadotte & Kylberg to make this bench (and my life).

VERNER PANTON OUTDOOR SERIES

Montana’s iconic Pantonova seating collection has launched in an outdoor version. You’ll fall in love all over again with this classic.

TEEMU SALONEN CHINESE RESTAURANT LAMP

These ceramic LED flower lights by Teemu Salonen were a favorite at the Finnish Institute’s Wild at Heart Exhibition.

CARL HANSEN & SON OUTDOOR FURNITURE

Børge Mogensen’s new collection of outdoor seating for Carl Hansen is the epitome of Danish modern–meets–Cali cool.

FOGIA LYRA CHAISE

Andreas Engesvik’s impossibly comfortable chaise for Fogia is at the top of my wish list for my own home.

BAUX ACOUSTIC PANELING

Sure, this ultra cool paneling comes in a range of the prettiest hues. But it also creates optimal sound absorption and it’s highly sustainable to boot.

HEM X PAUL VAUGOYEAU

After touring the new headquarters of Hem—featuring this standout Soft Baroque-designed counter in the entry—I’m doubly excited to see the company’s new showroom in New York City next month.
