”Material Matters” is an installation curated by Swedish interior architects Halleroed, design gallery Jacksons Design and Atelier Saman Amel. A prelude to Saman Amel's new Stockholm atelier opening early Fall.
In an increasingly digital world, Atelier Saman Amel believes in presenting craftsmanship gracefully and with purpose in physical ateliers. The appreciation for objects and the physical space brought the brand together with renowned interior architects Halleroed and Jackson Design and together the three have worked on several projects together that explores contemporary iterations of Scandinavian design. While the London atelier emanated from a new take on “Swedish Grace”, the new Stockholm atelier currently in construction explores a more eclectic side of the partnership.
Open by appointment as of June 5th at Jacksons Design Gallery, Sibyllegatan 53, Stockholm.
