These VERK Furniture Designs Prioritize Swedish Sustainability
Michael Hemsworth — February 27, 2023 — Art & Design
These VERK furniture designs have been created with a balanced aesthetic to prioritize both high-end Scandinavian forms along with a focus on sustainability.
The collection includes the Armchair V.EU.01 and Table V.AS.01, which are both minimalist in form with Scandinavian style at the forefront. The furniture pieces are achieved using woods like Swedish oak and birch, while the chair features an organic tanned Swedish leather for the seat and backrest.
The VERK furniture designs are the design work of Elsa Unnegard for the Armchair V.EU.01, while the Table V.AS.01 has been designed by Anya Sebton. The pieces each prioritize durability, functionality and traceability to make them perfect for sustainability minded consumers. The furniture also features minimal hardware to make it easy to construct and deconstruct as required.
