Arranged by the Swedish Design Moves project and curated by Joyn Studio, ”HEMMA gone wild” showcases the most interesting of Swedish interior design with a focus on sustainability, nature and innovation. The exhibition invites visitors to experience an abstract and playful vision of home through an unfolding scenography, drawn by curiosity and a mood of mystery.
