Livet Designat – hur design förändrar tanken och förbättrar livet
Life Designed – how design changes thinking and improves life
The exhibition shows examples of the wealth of products produced during the period from 1960 onwards. Hiring designers for product design is linked to the rise of industrialism and after the Second World War production accelerated and industrial design became an established profession. Creating attractive products became important and in the 1960s the Swedish economy was booming. An important factor in this success was the high quality of Swedish design. More and more companies hired designers and industrial designers in their product development and to create a credible corporate identity. The exhibition contains around 200 objects from the Nationalmuseum
