Lammhults Exhibits Work by Designer Erika Geiger Ohlin
Lammhults is showcasing a new exhibition by designer Erika Geiger Ohlin at its Stockholm showroom, featuring projects that utilize waste and leftover materials. The exhibition includes the "Lammhults Traces" project.
Lammhults, a Swedish furniture company with a design heritage dating back to 1945, is presenting a new exhibition at its Stockholm showroom. The exhibition centers on designer Erika Geiger Ohlin, who was the recipient of a scholarship established by Lammhults last year.
The show features Ohlin's "Lammhults Traces" project, made possible by the scholarship, which investigates the repurposing of wool fabric and steel tube waste. It also includes pieces from her earlier "Uncanny Traces" project, crafted from leather waste.
Erika Geiger Ohlin employs design as a method to explore societal norms, identity, consumption, and human-nature relations. She emphasizes the importance of craft in her practice and foresees a future where craft dialogues with industrial production to better steward scarce resources.
Through establishing the scholarship, Lammhults aims to support the development of young Swedish designers as part of the Ung Svensk Form initiative. The company sees a connection to its own design language and its commitment to a sustainable future reflected in these collaborations.
