Grovhugget anno 2008 by Jens Fager

Stockholm Design Week: Swedish designer Jens Fager presented a collection called Grovhugget anno 2008 at the Greenhouse young designers’ showcase at the Stockholm Furniture Fair last week.

The rough-surfaced painted chairs, tables and candelabras are made by cutting pine on a band-saw and have been created for a restaurant Fager is designing for Swedish chef Tommy Myllymäkis. Grovhugget is Swedish for “rustic”.
