More about Uno Åhrén

Uno Åhrén was a significant Swedish architect and urban planner who graduated from Stockholm's Tekniska Högskolan (Royal Institute of Technology) in 1919 and made his debut with an interior design at the Hemutställningen (the Home Exhibition) exhibition at Liljevalchs in Stockholm 1917. Åhrén, who initially drew inspiration from Neoclassicism and Swedish Grace, subsequently became one of the leading advocates of Functionalism, with a focus on the social aspects of housing. He was one of the earliest designers to collaborate with Estrid Ericson at Firma Svenskt Tenn, where he designed both furniture and more luxurious pewter objects.

From the late 1910s onwards, Åhrén participated in a number of exhibitions, including, in addition to the aforementioned Hemutställningen in 1917, the Gothenburg Exhibition in 1923, the World’s Fair in Paris in 1925, the Stockholm Exhibition in 1930 and the World’s Fair in Chicago in 1933. After 1930, Åhrén devoted himself primarily to urban architecture and town planning, serving, among other positions, as city planning architect in Gothenburg from 1932 to 1943 and as head of Svenska Riksbyggen during the 1940s.
