Hur Taserudsjugend kom till världen
Bröderna Eriksson (Ola, Karl och Elis) övertog sin fars snickeri 1891 och startade Bröderna Erikssons Möbelverkstad i Arvika. De var då alla välutbildade och snickeriet var redo utföra avancerade beställningar. De engagerade hantverkare, konstnärer, smeder och väverskor i arbetet med uppdragen och ur detta växte den nya tidens konsthantverk. Konstnärerna i Rackstadgruppen anlitades; exempelvis ritade Gustaf Fjæstad möbler, Björn Ahlgrensson och Maja Fjæstad ritade intarsiamönster för möbler.
Anmärkningsvärt är att i tidens styvt manliga värld tillät Bröderna Eriksson även flera kvinnor att gå i lära på snickeriet. Exempelvis utbildade sig Nanna Johansen (dotter till Skagenkonstnären Viggo Johansen) hos bröderna i Taserud. Lillebror Christian, med 20 år i internationella miljöer och konstutbildning från Paris, var en stark komplettering till Bröderna Erikssons snickeri. Han hade knutit många vänskapsband och kontakter, han var en erkänd skulptör och han hade kontinuerliga kontakter med Stockholms överklass och nya borgerlighet. Beställningarna flödade och snickeriet kunde i strid ström leverera färdiga möbler via tågtransport till Stockholm men också andra delar av landet Christian fick ett stort skulpturuppdrag för Kiruna nya kyrka.
Brödrakvartettens stora kunskaper och breda nätverk skapar helt unika möbler som i dag hör till landets förnäma kulturarv. De introducerade en egen variant av det som senare skulle komma att kallas Jugendstil. En nyckel till framgången är deras stora sociala kompetens och förmåga till samarbete. Samarbetspartners var tidens stora arkitekter och samhällsbyggare, kundkretsen dåtidens stilmedvetna överklass och nya borgerlighet. Prins Eugén, Nils Kreuger, Karl-Otto och Eva Bonnier, Ernest Thiel, Pontus Fürstenberg, Hjalmar Lundbohm och Carl Laurin är bara några exempel på viktiga personer i sammanhanget. Bland formgivarna av möbler som tillverkades i Taserud kan nämnas Carl Westman, Ragnar Östberg, Axel Lindegren, Elis Benkert m fl.

The creative duo Charles Eames (1907–1978) and Ray Kaiser Eames (1912–1988) transformed the visual character of America. Though best known for their furniture, the husband and wife team were also forerunners in architecture, textile design, photography, and film. The Eameses’ work defined a new, multifunctional modernity, exemplary for its integration of craft and design, as well as for the use of modern materials, notably plywood and plastics. The Eames Lounge Chair Wood, designed with molded plywood technology, became a defining furniture piece of the 20th century, while the couple’s contribution to the Case Study Houses project not only made inventive use of industrial materials but also developed an adaptable floor plan of multipurpose spaces which would become a hallmark of postwar modern architecture.From the couple’s earliest furniture experiments to their seminal short film Powers of Ten, this book covers all the aspects of the illustrious Eames repertoire and its revolutionary impact on middle-class American living.

Litteraturen om svenska möbler och deras formgivare under 1950- och 1960-talet är relativt omfattande. Mindre upp märksamhet har de tillverkande företagen fått, vilka genom tekniska förändringar, nya material och metoder rationaliserade sin verksamhet. Stordrift och serietillverkning slog igenom, samtidigt som hantverksbetonade moment fanns kvar.
Denna bok försöker täcka denna lucka. Möbelbranschens utveckling tecknas mot bakgrund av omvärldsfaktorer såsom stigande välstånd, försöken att råda bot på bostadsbrist och trångboddhet, nya sätt att distribuera möbler i form av kedjebildningar och stora varuhus med Ikea som det främsta exemplet. Boken diskuterar även den förändrade synen på inredning och möblernas funktion.
Historien konkretiseras genom minihistoriker över ett tiotal möbelfabriker. Deras ekonomiska och tekniska utveckling studeras. Stort utrymme ägnas också de möbler som producerades och de formgivare som var verksamma under perioden.

More than any other piece of furniture, the chair has been subjected to the wildest dreams of the designer. The particular curve of a backrest, or the twist of a leg, the angle of a seat or the color of the entire artifact; each element reflects the stylistic consciousness of an era.From Gerrit Rietveld and Alvar Aalto to Verner Panton and Eva Zeisel, from Art Nouveau to International Style, from Pop Art to Postmodernism, the history of the chair is so complex that it requires a comprehensive encyclopedic work to do it full justice. They are all here: Thonet’s bentwood chairs and Hoffmann’s sitting-machines, Marcel Breuer’s Wassily chair and Ron Arad’s avant-garde armchairs. Early designers and pioneers of the modern chair are presented alongside the most recent innovations in seating.This dedicated compendium displays each chair as pure form, along with biographical and historical information about the pieces and their designers. An illuminating tome for design aficionados and an essential reference for collectors.

Ibland möter man någon vars livsverk är genialiskt - men nästan helt okänt för allmänheten. En sådan person är finsnickare Calle Warfvinge i Ekholma i Skåne. Han gör enastående vackra stolar, bord, byråer och trappor av lövträd som växer i skogarna där han bor. Okänd för allmänheten, men i högsta grad av allmänt intresse. Det är bakgrunden till att jag tagit initiativet till denna fotobok. Fler människor måste ges möjlighet att upptäcka detta gudabenådade trähantverk. Ett annat skäl är förstås det bildmässiga. Hans möbler och inte minst hans snickarbod är en dröm för en fotograf att försöka avbilda. Arbetet med boken har tagit flera år. Ett av skälen är Carl-Eric Warfvinges anspråkslöshet. Han har värjt sig mot att kallas konstsnickare, och han har uttryckt tvivel om hans livsverk verkligen är värt en bok, och på hans begäran har alla överord i boken strukits. Men i fotografens förord har jag tillåtelse att säga som det är. Jag är mycket tacksam för att jag har lyckats övertala Carl-Erik Warfvinge till att göra denna bok. Jag är också glad för att jag har fått följa hans arbete, och för all tid och allt arbete som han har lagt ner för denna bok. Ett särskilt tack även till grafiska designern Eva Brumark, som tålmodigt följt med på hela resan.

A visual analysis of the colours used in furnishing fabrics and wallpapers from the 15th century to now, providing inspiration for designers. This simply structured and highly original book analyses the palettes that have been used by designers in the creation of furnishing fabrics and wallpapers from the 15th century to the present. The colours used in each pattern are presented in a simple proportional grid, giving a clear understanding of hues that have been expertly combined at different periods to create the designs we continue to admire and emulate. Spectrum opens with a brief introduction by interior design expert Ros Byam Shaw, exploring the history of colour as used in interiors. The fabrics and wallpapers that follow are arranged chronologically. Each is reproduced on its own double-page spread, and is accompanied by a brief narrative-style caption that provides information about each fabric or wallpaper and its significance in the context of interior design. Unique in such a book are the colour grids shown beside each pattern, in which the colours in the original piece are shown in proportion to their use, and with their CMYK references to enable designers to replicate these colours in their own work.

Josef Frank (1885-1967) arbetade nästan hela sitt liv som arkitekt och designer av möbler och textilier. Han föddes och levde i Wien fram till 1920-talet. Då hade han hunnit bli en av modernismens främsta företrädare i det då radikala klimatet. 1934 flyttade han till Sverige, där han redan tidigare haft uppdrag, och arbetade under 30 år för Svenskt Tenn som skapare av möbler, lampor, glas och tryckta tyger. Hans modernism var inte alls sträng utan han lockades av det symboltyngda. Han var också starkt påverkad av Estrid Ericson, skaparen av Svenskt Tenn, och hans kreativa chef och kollega i alla år. Franks stolar, bord och byråer med vackra och egna linjer är fortfarande efterfrågade. Mest känd är kanske hans blomsterprydda byrå som ständigt vinner nya beundrare. Boken är rikt illustrerad. Kristina Wängberg-Eriksson är konsthistoriker och specialist på Josef Frank, som hon tidigare skrivit om i bokform. Hon var också anställd på Svenskt Tenn i många år. Hennes make, Jan Christer Eriksson, tidigare professor på KTH, är medförfattare.

The ultimate collector’s resource, including hundreds of pieces by both well- and lesser-known designers from around the world. From armchairs and chaises longues to cabinets and nightstands, the period between the late 1930s and early 1970s was one of the most productive, inventive and exciting eras for objects and furniture in the home. Post-war optimism combined with new manufacturing methods and material techniques to create an explosion of new design and objects of desire. The appetite for mid-century modern remains as strong as ever, both for classic designs – many still in production since they were launched – and for rare, hard-to- find or out-of-production pieces from lesser-known designers. While numerous books surveying mid-century modern style have appeared over the years, no publication has been specifically conceived for the increasing collector’s market in mid-century modern design, focusing on each piece of furniture as an object of formal invention, manufacturing intelligence and material innovation. This definitive book profiles hundreds of pieces in a substantial format perfect for reference in design libraries, studios and the homes of private collectors – or as an object of design in its own right. Each item of furniture is presented in detail, illustrated in colour and profiled via in-depth descriptive texts by Dominic Bradbury. The book’s substantial reference section includes essays on materials (eg, plywood) and designer profiles. Work by a host of influential talents is profiled throughout, alongside lesser-known pieces by Piet Hein, Bruno Mathsson, Lina Bo Bardi and Alexander Girard.

BTJ 2009:24 (Recensionsservice för Sveriges bibliotek) : --- och i denna gedigna volym får hela IKEA-konceptet en genomlysning. --- Boken är uppbyggd kring decennier med inledande kultur-/samhällsöversikter. Var tidsperiod har sin inriktning, så har 1970-talet rubriken ”I takt med tiden och ut i världen”. Alla decennier är rikt illustrerade med olika varuprodukter, noggrant angivna med namn och formgivare. Texterna varvas med intressanta intervjuer med formgivare och deras inställning till form- och produktionsprocessen. Roligt att alla katalogomslag är avbildade. En intervju med Ingvar Kamprad visar på IKEA:s kärnvärden och kontinuitet. Författaren tar även upp problemområden som plagiat och miljöfrågor och slutkapitlet ”Framtida utmaningar” reser komplicerade frågor. Volymen, som lär bli ett standardverk, avslutas med en Vem gjorde vad?-förteckning. – Inger Fredriksson

In today's throwaway culture, there's a counter movement growing that urges us to 'make do and mend'. Reusing and upcycling has never been more popular, relevant or necessary, as people are becoming more aware of the grave implications of fast fashion/furniture on landfills and the environment - and with the cost-of-living crisis tightening everyone's purse strings, people are even more likely to turn to DIY methods to refresh their homes and furniture. Upholstery is one of the most accessible ways to refresh your home and in Upholstery School, The Repair Shop's resident upholsterer Sonnaz Nooranvary (of Sonnaz) shows readers exactly how to refresh their furnishings, with clear step-by-step instructions and photography, using her years of expertise and characteristic tasteful style that has cemented her as a fan favourite.

Projects include scatter cushions, bolster cushions, lampshades, various types of dining chairs, different shapes of headboard and a room divider.

Interior designer and television host Jeremiah Brent explores the emotional meaning of home in this warm and inviting home decor book that illuminates what make peoples’ spaces so personally significant.For many of us, our houses are more than just where we hold our belongings. They are reflections of who we are and where we’ve been. They represent our aesthetics, our personalities – provide us with purpose and intention, and if we’re lucky, a safe space to live and create. For years, Jeremiah Brent and his family lived in one beautiful home after the next. Yet after a short time, they always felt the pull to move on. Curious to understand why, he embarked on a deeply personal mission to discover what makes a home a space that keeps you.The Space That Keeps You isn’t just a study of beautiful interior design; it’s an emotional design book that explores what gives spaces meaning. Through candid conversations with nine individuals and families varying in backgrounds, lifestyles, and geographic locations, Jeremiah reveals how and why the spaces we inhabit come to feel like they truly belong to us—the memories, emotions, and inspiring personal stories that shape what home signifies.He introduces memorable people like the artist couple James and Alexandra Brown and their children who made an abandoned plot in Merida, Mexico their accidental paradise, and Tracy and Brian Robbins who found refuge during the pandemic in a serene single-story home in Montecito surrounded by fields of lavender. He illuminates a personal side of Oprah Winfrey as she speaks to the importance of nature in her dream of home, and describes the story of Giberto and Bianca Arrivabene, who fought to hold onto their family’s historic Venetian palazzo. Their stories are bookended by Jeremiah’s recollections of his own journey defining home with his husband, fellow interior designer and television personality Nate Berkus, and their two children.Filled with intimate, meaningful details—from the kitchen that now nourishes the grandchildren of the adoring couple who first cooked there fifty years ago to the beams of one apartment’s walls that are etched with hearts to literally represent the love that fills it—and accompanied by 300 inviting and inspiring color photographs—this beautiful coffee table book illustrates the essence of what makes a house a home. Just like Jeremiah himself, readers will leave this book with a newfound appreciation for the power of interior design and the places that connect and shape us.Go beyond design to discover the heart of home:An Emotional Approach to Design: Go beyond a study of beautiful interiors to explore the memories, stories, and feelings that truly make a space feel like it belongs to you.Exclusive Celebrity Homes: Join candid conversations with noteworthy people, including a personal visit with Oprah Winfrey at her Montecito home, "The Promised Land".A Personal Design Journey: Follow Jeremiah's own story as he and his husband, Nate Berkus, search for the true meaning of home for their family.Stunning Photography: Immerse yourself in 300 inviting and inspiring color photographs that make this the perfect addition to any design lover's coffee table.

The five countries known collectively as Scandinavia were the source of some of the most important furniture designs of the twentieth century and the influential concept of “Scandinavian modern.” Today, a new generation of designers continues the tradition, creating pieces that are functional, comfortable, and appealing to look at.
