Contemporary Collected is an exhibition that aspires to give you an insight of how Swedish design looks like today. At two different venues in Tokyo we are showing a variety of selected items representing different design disciplines. The exhibition is curated by Katrin Greiling and Gustaf Kjellin for Svensk Form, the Swedish Society of Crafts and Design.

The venues:
Midori.so
The selection at Midori.so is focusing on design objects, raging from one offs to mass-produced and limited edition items. Represented are several Swedish design practices, working in different fields such as table ware design, furniture design, jewelry and textile design. Other typical Swedish daily life objects accompany the selection.
