Swedish designer Gustaf Westman, known for his sculptural furniture, playful shapes and bold colours, visited Zurich at the end of summer for a special appearance at the interior design store Kioskio.
With his distinctive approach to contemporary design, Westman has gained international recognition for transforming everyday objects into expressive statement pieces. His creations challenge traditional ideas of furniture and interiors, combining functionality with unexpected proportions, rounded silhouettes and vibrant colours.
During his visit to Kioskio, Darya von Bergen had the opportunity to meet the designer and discover more about his creative universe. His designs reflect a playful approach to interiors, where furniture and decorative objects become an expression of personality.
Kioskio is currently the only retailer in Switzerland offering Gustaf Westman’s designs, giving design enthusiasts in Zurich the opportunity to discover his distinctive pieces in person.
