David Ericsson
Praised as one of Sweden’s most exciting designers of his generation, Stockholm‑based David Ericsson has earned prestigious honours, including Designer of the Year 2024 from Elle Decoration Sweden and the Designer of the Year Form Award in 2018.
Ericsson elevates function with warmth and clarity, creating ergonomic forms that declare their purpose at a glance, because, for him, great design is always unapologetically obvious. His carefully considered process produces objects built to survive in a rapidly changing world, a practice that takes time to perfect.
With the Vev chair series for Northern, Ericsson has created a contemporary everyday workhorse defined by softness and timelessness. His signature approach pairs a striking yet simple frame with a warm, inviting seat, perfectly balancing function and visual impact.
