Swedish design studio Smålands Skinnmanufaktur (SSM) has introduced striking dark variations to their collection of furniture and homewares with the launch of SSM Black Noir. Their signature shelves, hanger, stool and daybed are now offered in a beautiful combination of black Swedish leather from Tärnsjö Tannery and dark-treated and matt lacquered ash. The shelf and hanger products also come in the original ash finish with black leather, accentuating the beauty of the pieces through contrasts of light and dark.
With a focus on craft, and valuing our planet's resources, SSM expresses the feeling of the collection through beautiful words. Here is an excerpt...
An ongoing journey continues towards a darkened expression.
Further out into the world, yet closer to our heart. More mature, with more courage, and a strong belief that furniture may well lean into art. Bringing something more, earning its place as a statement piece and putting an edge on the room’s personality.
Trends come and go. The choice has been made to see past them, creating an attitude to follow the tendencies without conforming to them. Standing confident in the design as well as in the meticulously produced materials. Furniture designed with a purpose of its own gives pleasure to the eye every day.
