SPECIAL EVENT

Celebrate with us on Friday, March 5th at Zinc Details in San Francisco.

We’ll be kicking off a very exciting new endeavor to bring independent Swedish design to retail shops across the US. That’s right, From Sthlm is now distributing as well!

Join us as we launch with textile brand Bantie’s US premiere. You’ll recognize the work of these talented ladies as our featured designers last month.

Already well established in their home country of Sweden, Bantie marks its first foray into the US with a reception and month-long display at Zinc Details on Fillmore Street.

The display will be designed for impact, covering a 14-foot wall with Bantie’s vivid orange, red, yellow, black and white patterns and products just in time for spring.

The patterns are both contemporary and timeless, combining inspiration from Japan and the natural forms of Scandinavia with top quality craftsmanship from the longstanding tradition of Sweden’s Ljungbergs textile factory. This is the same factory that produced Stig Lindberg patterns in the 50’s, and continues to do so today.

Products will include home interior pieces such as table runners, cushions, placemats, serving trays and even wallpaper, with personal items like shoulder bags and pouches. All products are for sale.

This is the second time we’ve worked with Zinc Details, another company committed like us to promoting the exceptional work of independent designers.

Opening reception

When: Friday, March 5th from 6pm – 8pm
Where: Zinc Details, 1905 Fillmore Street, San Francisco

* The Bantie display will continue through the end of March.
