Form/Design Center started in 1964 and is run by Svensk Form (the
Swedish Association of Crafts and Design). Svensk Form was established
in 1845 and is the world’s oldest such association.
Form/Design Center is situated in the heart of Malmö by Lilla
Torg. The granary, in which Form/Design Center now stands, was erected
in 1850 by local merchant Gabriel Hedman after whom the adjacent
16th century courtyard ‘Hedmanska Gården’ is named.
Form/Design Center’s goal is to engage and educate about design
and show its importance in our surroundings and our everyday life.
Design matters to everyone.
Come along and see how it matters to you!
