I'm pretty sure Swedish designers hold the world record in beautiful design for kids. Almost every designer in Sweden has at some point designed something for kids. Swedish design is similar to other Scandinavian design, it's characterized by clean lines, functionality and sophisticated form. But in Swedish design you can also see a reference to Swedish folklore, like in the design of Moa Jantze and Basander Lundin. And moose are also quite common in Swedish design.
While going through a lot of work and projects by Swedish designers I noticed that a lot of the objects are black, which I really like, it's can by a happy relief from the standard flashy colors. Image above: Meadow, a rug by Asshoff & Brodgård, White leather bracelet by Elin Basander André, Bruno, teddy bear by Karin Mannerstål, Story cabinet from Heirloom, Polkadot star, light by Karin Mannerstål, Peek, wardrobe by JBA design, Mini kitchen from Micki, A swedish tale, a rocking chair by Elin Bassander André, Rabbit storage box from Heirloom, Animail friends, cutlery by Karin Mannerstål, Älgfia, a board game by PS TOYS, Moose playing cards from Pluto Produkter, Hoppetosa, Pippi's ship from Micki, Swing rocking chair by Moa Jantze.
