What is our relationship to objects and other bodies? What does our participation in a community mean, and what emotions can it evoke?

Can entering a space mean putting something… Continue reading Catrin Axelsson

Deep down in my subconscious, lives are being created by memories and actions. They have been shaped and developed from the moment I was given life and will continue until I cease to exist. In my degree project, SELF-PORTRAITS INCOGNITO, I create a surreal interpretation of my inner world and the creatures living within it.… Continue reading Amanda Edstrand

Through… Continue reading Rebecka Österlund

What would a species-inclusive urbanization look like? My degree project began as an investigation of the bat habitat Rasbranten in Stadshagen where housing is planned to be built. It resulted in a facade system for bats, flowers, moths and humans. While caring for dusk-scented flowers together, humans and bats are given the opportunity to collaborate… Continue reading Nora Linnros

Start to Finish explores how a young designer can go from an idea to a commercial product ready for serial production. The degree project is presented in the form of a kitchen stool for the home environment, manufactured locally to promote small-scale production within the country, thus reducing transport distances and lead times. Through the… Continue reading Nikita Elfström

With used materials, I have created a modular system for the everyday bag that promotes circularity and sustainable design. The modular bag system enables personalized products, where the user can choose different types of bag parts, modules, based on several factors, such as need, preference, and occasion. The modules are made from used textiles that… Continue reading Moa Malmborg
