\n\u201cI\u2019ve wanted to use this chair for a long time. It\u2019s in the same league as many of Axel Einar Hjorth\u2019s chairs, which have become so popular and sought-after at the international auction houses. Christian Haller\u00f6d is a cabinet maker and furniture designer with double qualifications from Malmstens. He graduated in 1998 and now works through the design studio Halleroed, which includes his wife Ruxanna Haller\u00f6d, an architect from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH). They work together on architecture and interior design projects, for example for Acne studios, Byredo and Tot\u00eame. Recently, a \u201cpublic living room\u201d furnished by the duo was opened at the Nordiska Museum in Stockholm.<\/p>\n\n
\u201cIt has an incredibly strong character, with its rounded, bowl-shaped back. At the same time, it is very soft, comfortable and relatively neat\u201d, says Christian. I was also attracted to the fact that it is made entirely from wood with very fine details. And that it has not been seen so much. I also liked that it was Carl Malmsten who designed it, since you don\u2019t quite associate him with this type of aesthetics. The H&M brand Arket and the furniture manufacturer Tre Sekel acquired the rights to produce Skedblad through the Siv and Carl Malmsten Memorial Foundation. The design studio and Tre Sekel based the product on Malmsten\u2019s drawings, but also on two original chairs bought at auction. A number of prototypes were made to get as close as possible to the original. \u201cSince the chair is so organic, you have to apply a trial and error approach until it is perfect\u201d, Christian says. The first store opened in August 2017 on Regent Street in London, and has been followed by a further 16 arenas for Malmsten\u2019s sturdy Skedblad, including \u00d6stra Hamngatan in Gothenburg and Drottninggatan in Stockholm. More stores are underway.<\/p>\n
