Scandinavian Design Stig Lindberg

Stig Lindberg (1916-1982) was one of Sweden's most important postwar designers. His seminal vision of design has influenced an entire generation of new Swedish designers, with timeless, beautiful and inherently Swedish creations.

Bemz has chosen to reproduce two of Stig Lindbergs famous textile designs ”Bulbous” and ”Herbarium”. These designs have been reprinted by Bemz for the first time since the 1960s when they were originally produced. We feel that they fit perfectly with our feeling of Scandinavian design and the revived interest in retro design and style.

Stig Lindberg studied at the Swedish State School of arts, crafts and design in Stockholm, hoping to become a painter. Lindberg was employed by one of the preeminent ceramics houses in Sweden and worked with Gustavsberg’s studio until 1980 when he then moved to Italy to establish his own studio. He was over the years rewarded the gold medals and grand prix at the Triennale Exhibitions.
