A special survey published to celebrate 100 years of the influential and innovative Swedish design company Svenskt Tenn

In 1924, the pioneering designer and entrepreneur Estrid Ericson founded Svenskt Tenn in Stockholm, Sweden. Initially a workshop and retail store dedicated to pewter, Svenskt Tenn's range was quickly expanded by Ericson into one of the most successful home furnishings and interior design companies of the twentieth century.

Svenskt Tenn: Interiors celebrates the legacy of the company's first 100 years, while also marking its position at the forefront of interior design today. Richly illustrated and beautifully designed, the book delves into the story of Ericson and the company she grew, examining her creative relationship with acclaimed Austrian designer Josef Frank, whose magnificent, boldly patterned textiles and furniture helped define Svenskt Tenn's distinct aesthetic.

Pages of colourful imagery, including never-before-seen photographs and drawings from Svenskt Tenn's archive, reveal an immaculate selection of classic objects, furniture, and textiles, alongside examples of collaborations with contemporary designers including Michael Anastassiades, Lars Nilsson, Luca Nichetto, Ingegerd Råman, and Fornasetti. Designed by the Dutch graphic designer Irma Boom, Svenskt Tenn: Interiors shows how the iconic Swedish brand continues to create objects of the highest quality to improve and enhance everyday life.
