After the success of the last edition, Stockholm Design Week returns with a pop-up event this autumn, scheduled from September 5 to 9, 2023.

Established in February 2002, Stockholm Design Week has consistently aimed to promote, unite, and fortify the design scene in the Swedish capital.

Participating in this pop-up edition are numerous Swedish brands, including the lighting brand Belid, which will unveil its new collaboration with the Swedish duo Färg & Blanche.
