Accepting the aesthetic shortcomings of things
At this exhibition, you'll have the opportunity to witness firsthand how Finn turns trash into treasure. His innovative designs questions our conception of interior aesthetics, offering a fresh perspective on interior decor.
Awarded artist and designer Finn Ahlgren's work evolves around a philosophy that in short revolves around accepting the aesthetic shortcomings of things. Through his furniture company NÖJ DIG Finn manufactures furniture by hand from discarded, unattractive materials. As the name suggests, NÖJ DIG's philosophy is to be content with what one already has, especially from an aesthetic perspective. By building furniture from already worn materials, NÖJ DIG anticipates future wear and tear and uses the imperfections to its advantage.
