Designer
Swedish architect Nils Strinning (1917–2006) was one of the designers who laid the foundation for what is now widely recognised as Scandinavian style. He rose to international fame in the 1940s with his design of the iconic String shelving system.
String was launched in 1949 as part of a design competition organised by the Swedish publishing house Bonnier, and it quickly became a classic of modern, functional design. Strinning’s work has received numerous accolades, including a gold medal at the Milan Triennale, and the String shelving system remains one of Sweden’s most iconic design exports.
