Ornamentation Days March 15 - 16

The Ornamentation Days are two inspirational days where we explore together the history of ornamentation, its importance in today's interior design, and how we can bring this art form into the future.

The initiators are furniture designer Matilda Hunyadi, set designer Dennis Valencia and sculptor Karl Sjögren, who will all talk about the role and possibilities of ornamentation in their respective fields.

During the days, an ornamental display curated by Dennis Valencia will also be shown, where historical objects are mixed with contemporary works from Matilda Hunyadi, Karl Siögren, Josefin Eklund, Gustav Wiik, Victoria Eyram and textile artist Julia Kylen Collins.
