He has been inspired by classic menswear, such as suits and dinner jackets that never go out of style. - This is a lasting fashion, he says and refers to today's trendwear which is often discarded before being worn out. The process is called "slow fashion" and deals with maintaining a legacy with gradual changes.

Salone Satellite 2008 / Imbalanced Structure
April 2008 "Fredrik Färg´s products shows how construction can be playful and how beautiful the world can seem when slightly tilted. Even basic rules and laws of nature, can become visible when challenged. A familiar object on an unexpected scale, or a steady object of unsteady material, can, hopefully, open our eyes."

Grow up! at the Salone del Mobile in Milan 18-23 April The project Grow up! will be exhibited during the Salone del Mobile in Milan 18-23 April. I will be displaying my friend in the dark: Snug, a lamp for children. Snug is a friend during the night with a comfy light and a friendly shape. It can change characters through the flexible joints and the possibility to shift the pillows to attain new positions. The lamp is cordless so it can be placed anywhere in a room, for example sitting on a shelf dangling with its legs. Read more about Grow up! and view the work at HDK's website (click the Grow up! or Snug links above).

Grow up!: HDK master project at Stockholm Furniture Fair 07 January 2007 Together with my class I'm representing HDK at the fair with my project Snug: a friend in the dark, a kind of night lamp! We've all been young and we all carry memories from our childhood as well as from our teenage years. But it can be difficult to remember all the things we used to appreciate. In what way were we thinking, fantasizing and solving problems? One of HDK's main values is sustainable thinking throughout the design process, and those ideas are present also in the Grow up! project. Snug can be found at the HDK masterlevel stand V03:30.
