Founded by Petrus Palmér in 2014, Hem, or “home” in Swedish, is a Stockholm-based brand best known for its furnishings, lighting, rugs, and accessories. With locations in Stockholm, New York, and Los Angeles, Hem produces both in-house designs as well as collaborative lines with influential contemporary designers, including Sabine Marcellis, Luca Nichetto, and Formafantasma.

This spring, in the same spirit of collaboration, Hem launched Hem X, a platform that works directly with selected curators, artists, and designers on limited editions of 100 pieces or fewer.

For young designers Rasmus Nossbring, Lisa Reiser, and Jonatan Nilsson, the project provided manufacturing resources that expanded the designers’ capacity to produce series rather than the one-offs they might realistically complete on their own.
