In this episode of Design Vox, host Thommy Bindefeld meets Ingegerd Råman in her studio on Skeppsholmen in Stockholm. Thommy persists calling Ingegerd, Grand Dame of Swedish contemporary design, which she explains why she doesn’t feel comfortable being labeled as. “I’m just happy that my language is seen and appreciated” Ingegerd Råman is one of the internationally most well-known Swedish glass designers that is represented in museums around the world. Ingegerd has been awarded the title Professor by the Swedish government and been awarded with Prince Eugen Medal by H.M. King Carl XVI Gustaf. With her elegant and functionalistic design language she has worked with different materials, like ceramic, metal, textiles and glass, but she has also worked together with the architect Gert Wingårdh with architectural projects such as the Liljevalchs art museum in Stockholm. In this conversation Ingegerd and Thommy talks about creativity and how Ingegerd, being dyslectic, were encouraged to use her creative language in early age. Ingegerd talks about how she only designs products that she would use herself and how consistent she has been in her aesthetics. During the years Ingegerd’s design has been very acknowledged in Japan and she has done and is still doing new design projects with Japanese producers.
