String

®

has earned a place in design history thanks to

its elegant simplicity and an ingenious construction

that rests on only three elements – the shelf, the wall

panel and the metal fitting – yet can be put together

in an infinite number of configurations. Now in its

eighth decade, the String

®

System is just as flexible

and lively as when it debuted in 1949. It can be

endlessly reinvented as it passes from one generation

to the next.

HOW TO MANAGE A LEGACY, AND DEVELOP IT

EVERY DAY

Since 2005, String Furniture has owned the iconic

String

®

System. Celebrating its perfect combination of

form and function while developing it to meet the needs

and dreams of a new generation, is a balancing act.

We do this in two ways.

First, we continue to evolve the original String

®

System

by introducing contemporary colours, new materials and

fresh accessories.

Also, we introduce new designs, new furniture

to our collection. In this catalogue you’ll find not only

the String

®

System, but also a range of products by

other Swedish designers. Designers whose ideas and

ambitions closely align with String’s essential simplicity

and uniqueness.

A SUSTAINABLE IDEA MUST BE SUSTAINABLE

AT EVERY STEP

Sustainability is not a new concept for us, although we

are encouraged to notice that a growing number of

people care about it.

Everything we do at String Furniture is, in one way

or another, connected to sustainability. At the top of

our list is what we call life span. High-quality furniture

lasts a long time. Using durable materials and careful

manufacturing results in furniture that can be enjoyed

for many years, even decades, and has character and

a visual expression that feels beautiful and attractive

day after day.

THERE IS NO CERTIFICATION TO VALIDATE

”LOVABILITY”

Our furniture is currently in the process of being

certified and labelled by the Swedish Möbelfakta

test mark. Möbelfakta certifies quality, environment

requirements and social responsibility. At present over

70 percent of String Furniture’s range bears the mark,

and that number is growing.
