Distribution agreement with China

Carina Hägg is educated at Beckman School of Design in Stockholm, Sweden and has worked both in the fashion industry and as an artist.

After leaving the fashion industry, Carina Hägg changed direction and began to create her own unique, colorful patterns and sell them to IKEA, H&M and KappAhl, among others. The bold and colorful patterns that, for example, the Rose is the most famous, are today printed on design products such as towels, bedding, napkins, tray tables, umbrellas and kitchen towels.

“I express a lot with colors and materials and am attracted to the idea of ​​working out different patterns that can be applied to different surfaces, such as a piece of furniture. My shop at home on the farm in Ă–sterlen is well visited with various exhibitions and a studio for creation. Since 1996, I have participated in various fairs both nationally and internationally. I see China as an exciting market that looks very curious about Scandinavian design.”
