HI-gruppen och hantverkets återkomst/The HI-group and the Return to Craft

Masters of craft, furniture and interior design from the 1960s The HI-group was a collective of craftsmen and designers working across different fields and in different materials. At the start of the 1960s, Swedish cities were developing at an astounding rate, as hundreds of thousands of homes were constructed using standardised modern materials. Perhaps surprisingly, that moment also saw a renaissance in high quality craft. The HI-group attempted to renew the Swedish art of furniture and once more put craft back at the centre of the design process. They also aimed to help Sweden compete with Denmark at a time when the Danes dominated the world of crafted furniture. A book insert in colour displaying the stunning logotype.
