String Furniture is a Scandinavian design company, known for the flexible String® Shelving System designed by Nils Strinning in 1949. Today, String Furniture enjoys a fresh lease of life from the new company headquarters in Malmo, Sweden.
The simple and dainty shelving system with thin side panels has become an iconic design of the 20th century. Nils Strinning’s original design won a competition announced by Swedens largest publishing house, Bonnier, in 1949. Originally developed as an affordable and flexible bookshelf system that could be added to as an owner’s book collection increased, String Furniture is now one of the most adaptable shelving systems suitable for every space! Since it’s launch, the String design has received over 15 prestigious international awards.
Design Farm, in collaboration with our partners Great Dane, have the great pleasure of welcoming String Furniture to Perth, Western Australia. Meet the founders of String Furniture and learn about the timeless Swedish design celebrating it’s 70th birthday this year.
