22 designers from across Sweden present unique works and creative ideas spanning product and furniture design, graphic design, and digital design.
ArkDes highlights how design and architecture shape our lives. Young Swedish Design (Ung Svensk Form) offers insight into how the next generation approaches questions of society, climate, the body, identity, and production.
