Next week the design brands is showing off their latest news in Stockholm during the Stockholm Furniture Fair, one show, booth or event more impressive than the other.

He’s pedestals fast become popular and now he is launching a side table, a pendant light and a candle holder. All made by hand and therefor no product is identical to another.

One Stockholm based shop making it easier to find the unique pieces is . The third one up was founded by designer and photographer Nikodem Calczynski in early 2017. The goal was to create a living space that celebrate self expression and his well curated pieces in the ODEM Atelier collection is definitely worth knowing about. In the collection you’ll find objects made by petrified Indonesian wood, beautiful stone spheres (above), wooden vessels, hand thrown vases and more made by well known international artists.
