Vidar Malmsten (1924\u20131969) was the only one of Siv and Carl Malmsten\u2019s five children that followed in his father\u2019s footsteps. He became a furniture designer and interior architect. For many years he worked in his father\u2019s drawing office, and several of the interiors designed in the 1960s were created by Vidar, since Carl wanted to wind down and spend more time at Capellag\u00e5rden, the school of craft and design that he had founded a few years earlier on \u00d6land.<\/p>\n

In Vidar\u2019s design world, the creative hand, the handicraft touch,\u00a0 was always present, and he had for the time a strong commitment to environmental thinking, biodynamic cultivation, and local heritage preservation.<\/p>\n

At home, Vidar liked to work with wood, making small animals and toys for the children. A romatic vein, a playfulness, and a longing for freedom beyond all trends can also be traced in his interior designs.<\/p>\n

The artist Liselotte Malmsten (1922\u20132021), Vidar\u2019s wife and co-worker, is also represented in the exhibition, which has been produced in collaboration with the Siv & Carl Malmsten Memorial Foundations Minne.<\/p>\n

Most of the furniture and objects in the exhibition are on loan from Vidar and Liselotte\u2019s home in Bergshamra, near Brunnsviken. But you can also see the chair Kaj, which is produced by Tre Sekel, and the rustic pine chair L\u00e4rka, which is being produced in connection with the exhibition, initially made to order by cabinet-maker Peter Hellqvist.<\/p>\n

A highlight of the exhibition is the bureau Masur, designed by Vidar Malmsten in the early 1950s, and during spring 2022 crafted as a qualifying piece by Joakim Lindman Hirt at Malmsten\u2019s school on Liding\u00f6.<\/p>\n

\u201d\u2019Kulturgatan\u2019 is a back street and at the same time one of the most interesting areas of Bodafors\u201d. This is how the two local enthusiasts Mikael L\u00f6fstr\u00f6m and Leif Burman describe Magasinsgatan in Bodafors.<\/p>\n

In the past few years, it has been transformed into a summer destination offering genuine furniture history, exclusive wood craft, exhibitions of contemporary furniture art, a unique intarsia workshop, as well as a caf\u00e9, with soup and freshly baked bread.
