Bloesem

Huset

I always love to show Scandinavian designs on Bloesem so I was very happy that a terrific online shop, Huset, is a new sponsor of Bloesem selling many fantastic pieces from various Scandinavian designers like the Fiducia Magnetic Candlestick vase or holder from Louise Campbell

Or the Nero shelves designed by Nanni Holén. When designing the shelves Nannie was decorated shelves you sometimes find in old cupboards and Nero received the Swedish design "UNG" award this last year.

You can visit Huset , which means "the house" in Swedish, Danish and Norwegian right here for some very nice and unique modern scandinavian designs.

Nina Jobs

{pattern design by Nina Jobs called Tweed for the Kreation series}
With a smile on my face was I scrolling to Nina Jobs her site yesterday ... I really like her style, designs and patterns. Nina Jobs is an Swedish industrial designer with a background in graphic design. She lives in Stockholm and from her studio she works for some big brands like Ikea, H&M and for the Museum of Modern Art New York.

For the company David Design Sweden, Nina has designed the beautiful textile series, called Jungle, that includes this cushion and a large, round tray, both online available at the Scandinavian Design Center.

... I really like these flexible bowls in China with the cork lid from Nina Jobs, but I couldn't find a place were you can buy them, I think they were made especially for a corporate client. But anyhow, they are gorgeous to look at and I'm sure some of you will find them very inspirational.If you have any questions for Nina I would suggest just sending her an email. Have fun visiting her website.

...and if you were hoping to see this Weeks Gallery ... don't worry tomorrow it will be there with many nice designs, arts and textiles ... I just wanted to share this with you today...

Malin Lundmark

{Hook hanger and wooden knobs for the wall inspired by chess by Malin Lundmark}
Malin Lundmark just send me an email with her new collection of beautiful products. Malin is a Swedish designer, based in Stockholm and you might have seen her work before here on Bloesem. Malin's main philosophy when creating something, whether it is for an exhibition or a product, is to mix playfulness, function and decoration. She wants the product to both have a soul and to tell a story. Everything she make becomes a part of her Wonderland world, a world where fantasy becomes reality, a world where environment and products come together to create a completeness....

Another new product from Malin Lundmark is the MagBag...a magazine holder in the shape of a stylized bag. It´s a functional product where purpose and playfulness interplay in a poetic way and is available via Maze. {ps. The Hook Hanger and the Chess hooks are both available via LADP}

Launch design partner

Moa Jantze, Hanna Brogård and Johanna Asshoff are jba-design from Sweden and I love their new bird hangers! It's a ceramic hook in shape off a bird where you can expose your favorite accessories and are available via Launch design partner.

At Launch design partner I also found the vinyls for interior decoration by Ingrid Unsold. Ingrid is a graphic designer and interior decorator, who says her favorite spaces to decorate are elevators, restrooms and entrances...here you see what she means.

WIS design

It's always a pleasure to write about the beautiful furniture pieces from WIS design...Twine Table is their latest creation and I love it. This set of tables is inspired by one of the oldest ways of attaching one object to another – with a needle and thread. The wire is twined through the table top, and becomes legs as well as upholding construction. The tables comes in three different sizes, two coffee tables and a bar table, and can be placed together or apart. For more information click here...

Karl-Oskar Karlsson

Hi everyone...let me introduce to you a new product designer from Sweden, Karl-Oskar Karlsson, at the beginning of this new week. Karl-Oskar studied both glass design and product design at the School of Design in Kalmar, Sweden. He told me that the school is located in the Kingdom of Crystal where the top quality glass from Sweden is made. His designs are about searching for contrasts that can make 1+1=3, like this beautiful glass set. The set is part of collection called 'the combine family'...have a look here! You can send Karl-Oskar an email for more information.
