Skandium is a huge store, beautifully diverse and absolutely loaded with high quality design in everything from cards and cutlery to stunning pieces of furniture manufactured to impeccable standards.
In the exhibition space on the first floor there are gorgeous pieces of furniture byFolkform’s Anna Holmquist and Chandra Ahsell, as well as the beautiful ‘credenzas’ created by Swedish designer Eva Schildt. Here old industrial processes and traditional craft techniques are explored thoughtfully and thoroughly to complete pieces with strong yet subtle characters. The store invites you to look more deeply in it’s exhibition space where designs are presented with accompanying publications.
Eva Schildt, who won the ‘Excellent Swedish Design Award 2002’ is welcomed into Skandium with her jaw-dropping Grace one, two and three, which feature directly at the entrance in the front store, and feature in the LDF guides. She describes her work as “just slightly different,” and uses “small unexpected surprises, to evoke curiousness”. We witnesses this engaging quality first hand and experienced the soft ergonomic details of the wood used. There is also a talk on the making of the pieces presented on the on the 22nd by the designers themselves, but you can also get an insight into the prowess of the craftsmen at work on the exquisite furniture in a video in the adjoining room.
Downstairs, there are even more beautifully presented pieces of furniture to get acquainted with, as well as lighting and decorative objects; an array of hanging lamps caught our eye, as well as some stacking wooden stools, but a personal favourite was in a selection of Arne Jacobsen stacking chairs.
We found the showroom itself pretty stunning, and we were more than a little impressed! We were eager to take photographs so that more people can see the bounteous design finds curated here, but we couldn’t snap them all, so come on down and search for yourself!
