Trendgruppen PR’s press program Stockholm Furniture Fair & Stockholm Design Week

”Stockholm Furniture Fair and Stockholm Design Week are extremely important meeting points for Stockholm as a city, Sweden as a design country and for everyone who works in the design industry. Therefore, we are happy to present a really strong press program, both at the fair and in town, which enables Sweden to continuously maintain its position as Scandinavia’s leading design destination.”

“The must-see at the fair is of course the exhibition with Front, Älvsjö gård, the new climate-smart exhibition area called The Nude Edition alongside strong news from among other EFG (Front), Savo (Form Us With Love), Offecct (Teruhiro Yanagihara) and Haven (Note design studio). I am personally very much looking forward to Monica Förster’s light installation in Sofia church and Bengt Thornefors’ first collection for Sahco!”, says Karin Sköldberg, Creative Director at Trendgruppen PR.
