AQUANAUTS
In »Aquanauts – The Expedition to Siljansringen«, we follow the dramatic events during the summer of 1897. Beata Gardelius has kept a diary of her and Inga-Lisa's experiences. The book is designed and created by Pompe Hedengren with his story, sculptures, and drawings. Sara Mac Key has taken the beautiful photographs, and Josefin Rosales and Olof Hedengren have written the dramatic diary.
The book can be ordered online and is published by Orfeus+Arvinius.
The book of craft.
Our inspiring encounters with these ten craftsmen also became a book. Writer Bo Madestrand captured the ideas, while photographer Klara G captured the hands and studios. Art director Pompe Hedengren brought together these creators' portraits, and the book won gold for its powerful expression.
The book can be ordered online and is published by Orfeus+Arvinius.

Amitié
The Swedish Institute in Paris:
A Love Story
The Swedish and French cultures have had a long and passionate love story in Paris. For 50 years, the 16th-century palace Hôtel de Marle has been an important meeting place for both cultures. In 1971, the Swedish state opened the Swedish Institute in Paris here – Sweden’s only house of culture abroad. This is a book about a house, about people, about culture, but first and foremost about friendship. Amitié!
