Form & Framtid - Knowledge Day September 16

Welcome to an inspiring day in Stockholm filled with conversations, insights and meetings about the future of living, working and living. The day is free of charge and open to everyone - from the design-interested public to professionals and students.

During the day, you can explore how Swedese balances good form and function with a low carbon footprint, follow IKEA in a conversation about the future folk home and life between the houses, and hear the National Museum discuss the importance of the hand in an increasingly digital world. You can also attend 100Gruppen's anniversary event on sustainable interiors and listen to Stockholm Furniture Fair and Verk in the Future Past panel discussion on Swedish design tradition and innovation. DTSC takes us into the future at ArkDes: digital twins, AI and smart, sustainable cities. ArkDes will also host an evening of conversation, reflection and creation with previous winners of the Excellent Swedish Design award.
