recline - acne

Now you can not only slip into a pair of denim Acne skinnies, but then fall into the newest creation from Acne founder Jonny Johansson: Acne furniture! Johansson is keeping schtum in terms of what to expect, but he did divulge that his icon is mid-century Swedish design wunderkind, Carl Malmsten. The nature of these hand-crafted pieces sums up the handy crafting movement and its simplicity and quality. Johansson’s foray into furniture is not entirely out of left field, as he actually began his design career in the furniture realm. For now we have to dream up what the pieces will look like, but take a peek at images from Malmsten’s furniture and pieces from the Acne Spring 2010 line.
