OMMJÄNGE Collection: A Contemporary Remix of Swedish Folklore

Welcome to discover traditional Swedish furniture through a contemporary lens. The OMMJÄNGE collection is a unique and limited offering for those seeking an epic remix of heritage and modern design.

Rethink Traditional

Old folklore designs, often perceived as faded, reveal a surprisingly vibrant color palette when explored in hidden spaces. Crafted with long-lasting materials, impressive craftsmanship, and smart functions, these pieces tell stories of a past where rural Swedish life in the 1800s necessitated versatile solutions for shared living spaces. Today's small-space living echoes this need for adaptability.

A Collaboration Between Past and Now

Designers Maria Vinka and Matilda Hunyadi drew primary inspiration from a bride from the Swedish countryside and her wedding dress, captured in a painting from 1846. The dress featured graphic patterns in vibrant colors like black, red, green, white, and blue, with the bride wearing a crown. The OMMJÄNGE collection reimagines Swedish folklore by updating traditional materials with fresh colors.

Designers: Maria Vinka, Matilda Hunyadi

Long Live the Craftsmanship!

The OMMJÄNGE collection pays tribute to Swedish folklore heritage by merging traditional craftsmanship with modern ingenuity. It features detailed, handcrafted products made from classic materials such as solid pine wood, wool, stoneware, and glass. Inspired by 1800s techniques and folk art's attention to detail, the collection bridges contemporary needs with forgotten traditions.
