The Beckmans College of Design based in Stockholm has presented Workform, which is a special design collaboration between the Produce Design students in their final year and three Swedish furniture brands. They work with Edsbyn, SAVO, and Svensson & Linner to create the products. All of the designs are based on a theme, and this year, it centered around the idea of inclusiveness. As a result, the Pulse, Hub, Heed, and JUUNI designs have all made their debut at Stockholm Design Week.
The Pulse has three seat heights and is by Anna Nyman, Axel Peters, and Matarena Sjöberg in collaboration with Svensson & Linnér. Alva Jonasdotter, Love Persson, and Sara Lagerin created the Hub with a warm ambiance in collaboration with Edsbyn. JUUNI is by August Bällgren, Emelie Svensson, and Ellen Nilsson in collaboration with SAVO. Heed is by Siri Lövén, Karin Forsberg, and Victoria Johansson in collaboration with SAVO with ergonomic structures.
