Swedish Modernism is an artistic and architectural movement that emerged in Sweden during the early 20th century, particularly between the 1920s and 1950s. It is characterized by simplicity, functionality, and a focus on clean lines, often incorporating natural materials. This movement was influenced by European Modernism and aimed to create designs that were accessible and practical for everyday life. Key figures in Swedish Modernism include designers like Alvar Aalto and Bruno Mathsson, who emphasized the importance of form following function. The movement also extended to various fields, including furniture design, graphic design, and architecture, promoting a cohesive aesthetic that celebrated minimalism and innovation.
