SpaceTM meets designer Helena Jonasson


This April Hidden Art will be taking six of their designer-makers to the Milan Furniture Fair to unveil new products and prototypes.

SpaceTM particularly fell in love with the work of Helena Jonasson and Yu Jordy, so we decided to ask them a few questions, starting with Helena...

Which do you prefer - black or white?
White.
Modern or retro?
New and old in combination.
City or seaside?
Seaside.
What's currently your biggest inspiration?
Wood. Winter landscapes. Fictional characters & little stories.
What was the last thing you fell in love with and bought?
An Alvar Aalto stool.
What's your favourite room at home?
My home is in an old steel factory with amazing windows - the main room is large, bright and high up, almost in the clouds!
Where's your favourite space.
The headspace at the beginning of a journey somewhere unknown and exciting.
