Succession by Fredrik Färg at
20 Designers at Biologiska

23 February 2011

Stockholm 2011: Swedish designer Fredrik Färg presented his collection of leather stools as part of 20 Designers at Biologiska (see earlier story) during Stockholm Furniture Fair earlier this month.

Called Succession, the collection of stools is upholstered in fabric and leather and shaped to resemble a group of animals.

The surfaces of the stools are covered in grooves, which were created by wrapping rope around the leather objects and applying heat.

Stockholm Design Week took place 7-13 February. See all our coverage of the event here »

“SUCCESSION”

Fredrik Färgs new collection Succession reminds us – in shape and spirit – of animals from a time long gone. Dressed in leather and textile, the stools was brought to life through a series of processes.

The base is made of an innovative composition of materials which has been dressed in textile and leather and had ropes tied around it before being baked. The results when you cut away the rope is that of a pattern without seams, as brutal as it is sophisticated and refined.
