From the north: What’s happening at Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair
One of the first design weeks and fairs of the year, Stockholm Design Week invites visitors from around the globe to discover the best of Scandinavian design, showcasing local and international designers in events across Sweden's capital city. See below highlight designs, brands and exhibitors from the edition of the fair. Swedish design and lighting brand Pholc exhibited their impressive collection of contemporary lighting designs, works set against a dramatic backdrop of drapery on their stand, stopping passers-by in their tracks.
The centrepiece of the display was the artistic Bounce pendant; a ten bulb matte black design that visually represents electricity bouncing from one lamp to the next. Another design of note was the beautiful Blend pendant lamp by Sabina Grubbeson, featured on the stand in matte black and brass finish.

The simple form of the pendant merges design and style from both Scandinavia and Japan. Always one to present a swathe of new products with a fresh approach, Tom Dixon exhibited the fascinating new Swirl collection. Visually striking, the pieces are constructed by a unique process that involves using the excess powdered residue from the marble industry. The residue is then mixed with pigment and resin to create vibrant swirling blocks of material, easily sawn, sliced and turned on a lathe to create dramatic home accessories.
Also making its debut, the Carved accessory collection consists of mouth-blown, double-layered black and white glass, cut and defined to produce accessories that move away from the classic machine-crafted works that we know and love from the brand. The brand transported guests into a series of beautifully styled room sets. Visitors could explore and interact with pieces from the brand's impressive collection of designers.
Stand out designs from this year's fair include the plush 'Little Petra' lounge chair designed by Viggo Boesen; a magnificent chair begs to be sat in with its super soft fluffy upholstery, perfect for sitting and socialising or curling up with a good book. A wonderful dining series for any home, 'In Between', designed by Sami Kallio is a range of dining chairs, tables and bar stools.
The collection is beautiful yet simple in form, allowing for customisation in a variety of wood, upholstery and finish options, suitable for spaces grand and small.

Set out into a collection of style rooms, each space exhibited a particular product or collection. The Ikebana vases displayed wildflowers and grasses, set against a mirrored backdrop and vibrant pink podium. The vase's unique quality is the way that it can equally distribute flowers, enabling easier and more effective floral displays. In complete contrast, the room adjacent showcased the Cross-Plex range of table lamps, exhibited on clear acrylic podiums of varying heights against a bionic blue background.
