Björn Trädgårdh, Hus i Helsike, Oil on panel, 1927.

Trädgårdh, a radical leftist, is primarily remembered as a front man for the Scandinavian purist design movement. The pinnacle career-wise as well as in terms of purism almost comically being the pewter coffin commissioned by Nazi leader Herman Goering for is deceased wife. A fun fact often (and deliberately) omitted in Swedish design history.
