Thank you for posting this very informative documentary. My family lived in Sweden in 1966/1967 and that was our first contact with Scandinavian furniture. It is unique, and is only paralleled by Japanese works; I find a very strong familiarity between the two- it's all about essentials. The Western world has gone to pot; there is absolutely no more real furniture being designed, built, or even imagined. We are now in utter decadence. I was a cabinet maker and furniture restorer.
I’ve just saw it at the Design Museum in Copenhagen and it is marvelous.
