The Young Swedish Design 2022 touring exhibition shows 25 projects by up-and-coming young designers. It showcases everything from innovative fashion, to traditional handicraft techniques in a modern guise. Meet the stars of tomorrow, today!

Since 1998, Young Swedish Design has been the most important forum for young designers. Participants are selected by a jury, and the exhibition highlights 25 works chosen from hundreds of entries – from furniture, fashion, arts and crafts, to architecture, industrial design and graphic design. IKEA Museum is proud to produce this year’s exhibition, which is touring to five Swedish cities.

“My contribution to Young Swedish Design is a cabinet with an ornamental silhouette. Designing ornaments is an aesthetic handicraft that signals the value of the cabinet and its contents. Conveying the value of the object is pivotal for me as a designer, a way of coming out against the throw-away culture.” – Matilda Hunyadi, winner of the IKEA Scholarship, Young Swedish Design 2022

“Young Swedish Design is a recognition and an amazing opportunity for me to reach out. I could never have imagined as a child that I’d win an IKEA Scholarship! IKEA has been a favourite of mine since I was young, and it inspired me to be a furniture designer.”

– Matilda Hunyadi, winner of the IKEA Scholarship, Young Swedish Design 2022
