The Greenhouse area of the Stockholm Furniture Fair tends to be the most anticipated area of the exhibition, as it features up and coming designers. This year some highlights were No 3 table lamps by point-3 which seem have an animated form, seeming to perch on their tripod legs, the expressive 'trans-lamp' fluorescent ceiling lamp by trans-form, the functional (but heavy) modular concrete shelving by fries & zumbuhl, the vibrant colours and squashed forms of thefolded metal trash bins by Dear Clou, and the simple and well detailed tubular steel 'o2' tables by Jonathan Maltz,
