Rutger Andersson’s minimalistic design is characterized by a balanced harmony between function and aesthetics.
He rather gets inspiration from cars from the 50’s than from fancy design shows.
The result is furniture with heart and soul.
Rutger Andersson furniture has been represented at international contemporary furniture design shows all over the world, and in design metropolitans such as New York, Singapore, Milan and Tokyo.
He received the American furniture magazine Home Magazine’s American Furniture Award for best bath and kitchen furniture 2002.
