And herein lies the formula to why today Skultuna can be found at leading department stores all around the world, has won a number of international design awards and regularly exhibits at the leading international design fairs - we have always been, and will always be, one part traditional craftsmanship and one part modernity. The result can be seen in the following pages and at skultuna.com THE DESIGNER In the latest few years I developed a series of everyday objects for Skultuna, which are openly informed by the modern Italian design legacy; by merging this cultural heritage with that of the prestigious Swedish design company, I tried to high- light diversity, dialogue and exchange as key elements for the definition of a truly contemporary material culture. I’m writing this text from Milan. Other designers are probably doing the same from other cities around Europe. Skilled craftsmen are then working with our objects at the historic factory in Skultuna, while probably someone from the other side of the world is purchasing these objects on the web. We have elements to think that this amazing collaborative and multi-disciplinary network will continue to evolve, spreading Skultuna history and tradition to an even broader audience, hopefully passing its knowledge to future generations.

  • A Chair to Look to the Moon What We Can Learn from Irrational Design History for Contemporary Design Practice
    Paper draft – for DesignIX conference in Berlin, 15-17 februari. Version 10 November 2008 A chair to look to the moon What we can learn from irrational design history for contemporary design practice. Introduction The focus of product design is shifting from primarily offering functionality, towards experience and emotion driven product characteristics (Green, 2002). According to the theory of product phases (Eger, 2007), products will end in a phase characterized by individualization or awareness. Where the affective, emotional and abstract product values, become more and more important (Desmet, 2002; Norman, 2004). Individualization and awareness are, not accidently, also high up in Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. Different authors have different ideas about how to implement this emotion and affection in product design. Some of them even argue that affectivity is not influenced by the design at all, but only through the meaning that the user attaches to the product (Csikszentmihalyi, 1991/2007). That this idea is not new, or even from the last decades, is illustrated by a Chinese chair design dating from the Ming-period (illustration 1). This chair type is referred to as a ‘chair to look to the moon’ instead of as a ‘reclining chair’. In this way the chair is defined by the thing that you have to do with it, rather than by its functioning. And with this title the design opens up a whole of poetic associations like quiet nights on a veranda, clear skies, twinkling stars or even howling werewolves. By dreaming away with these associations you might even forget that the chair is actually not very comfortable.

ECOPIXEL is a manufacturing company that recycles mono-polymer plastic typol- ogy, made from 100% shredded waste material. The material is usually made with industrial thermoplastic waste but more and more also with collected material from any other field including household-waste. Recycling a mono-polymer means the material can be melted and re-melted an infinite number of times resulting in a forever circular material and creating this way a true “cycle” in material-use. As long as a material stays “clean” (read mono-polymer) it can be transformed at the exact temperature of the polymer involved and so, the material will never “burn” and deteriorate. Keeping polymers separate is thinking also about what happens after the recycled cycle.
