K&GX10 book launch celebrating 10 years of Korpi & Gordon by LOVE

1. Book launch from Malmstenbutiken as the showroom for founder Carl Malmsten
of the Swedish arts and crafts movement; hosting K&G x10
book launch party seems an ideal match.
Malmstenbutiken “When we started re-shaping the store in 1999 our aim was to
make Carl Malmsten feel contemporary again. In doing so we
searched for designers and craft artists that could match the
10
12th April 2010 quality of Carl Malmsten and bring freshness into the store. Maria
and Adam’s work felt instantly right and after 10 years of working
with them they have also become very dear friends.” – Nillus

var målsättningen att hitta en samtida känsla för Carl Malmsten.
pressmeddelande I arbetet försökte vi hitta formgivare och konsthantverkare som
kunde matcha våra kvalitetskrav och samtidigt ge butiken fräschör.
Maria & Adams textila mönster kändes rätt för oss direkt och tio
år senare räknar vi dem också till våra käraste vänner.” -Nillus
