Muut tiedot
Sven-Erik Frylund (1921-2003).
Fryklund was educated during the 1930s at Malmstens Verkstadsskola. For this cabinet he was awarded a silver medal by the Stockholm City Crafts Association.
Fryklund was a frequent designer of different kinds of Windsor-style chairs. He was actually the one who made the first drawings for the chair "Little Åland" together with Malmsten. Master Malmsten adjusted and signed the drawing for the model that has become one of the more long-lived produced Swedish chairs.
Lisää taiteilijasta Carl Malmsten
Carl Malmsten is one of Sweden's most famous furniture designers. Many of his furniture are considered modern design classics, for example, the cane chair "Lilla Åland", the armchair "Farmor", the sofa "Samsas", the cabinet "Herrgården", and the furniture series "Vardag".
Both "Lilla Åland" and "Vardag" adopted the ideals of "beautiful everyday goods" of the 1940s. Their neat shape and frugal design quickly became timeless interior details that we still see in many homes today.
At the beginning of his career, Malmsten interned at various carpentry workshops and studied furniture at Nordiska museet and Skansen. He had his breakthrough in 1916 when he was commissioned to design part of the interior of Stockholm's City Hall.
During his career, Malmsten collaborated with several architects, such as Ragnar Östberg, Ivar Tengbom, and Ferdinand Boberg. He designed furniture for Stockholm's concert hall and Ulriksdal castle. He participated in the now iconic hosing exhibition at Liljevalchs gallery in 1917, where the term "Beautiful everyday goods" was coined.
