(1888—1972)
Carl Malmsten was a Swedish furniture designer, architect and educator who founded Carl Malmsten Furniture Studies and Cappellagården, which offer courses in carpentry and cabinet making. Malmsten was inspired by Swedish culture and nature—the country manor and rustic styles, so he often used light colored wood and created beautiful harmonious furniture. He was opposed to functionalism and believed that his designs should reflect the traditional role of a home as an intimate place for people to gather and rest. Some of his well-known works include: Samsas sofa and easy chair, Samspel lounge set.
