This animalistic collection by Fredrik Färg was created for the exhibition 20 Designers at Biologiska, presented during the Stockholm Furniture Fair. **Implications** - Consumers seem to prefer interior design that is playful, but also a design that is [inspired by nature and wildlife](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eriksberg-collection).
